The History of James Bond Los Angeles Times Edition
THE LIGHTS DIM, and a new Bond steps into the spotlight. Daniel Craig, all grit and steel, orders his vodka martini, not stirred but shaken. The critics held their breath, could he pull it off? Two hours later, applause shakes the theatre. Casino Royale isn’t just good … it’s a reinvention. Bond bleeds, fights, falls in love. It’s raw, it’s real. From scepticism to standing ovation — 007 is back.

– The first James Bond big screen movie in 1962
– The first person to play Bond on screen in the 1950s (it’s not who you think)
– The reinvention of James Bond in 2006
