Have you heard of <em>RAAZI</em>?</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><em>RAAZI</em> is a fictionalized drama about a real spy in the 1971 India-Pakistan war. This is an espionage movie, not an action movie, which we think is a good thing.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>The central theme of this movie is “What are you prepared to do for your country?”</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Why is this a spy movie worth watching? Dan and Tom detail the reasons why, and also talk about some of the criticisms of <em>RAAZI</em>.

FOR YOUR EYES ONLY - How the Story Came to Be
<p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">FOR YOUR EYES ONLY - How the Story Came to be</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><em>FOR YOUR EYES ONLY</em>, the movie, was not the story from Ian Fleming’s short story with the same title. In this episode, Dan and Tom decode the movie to see how the story came to be.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Some of the characters from the movie, and some of the plot points were adapted from Ian Fleming’s 1960 short stories “For Your Eyes Only” and “Risico”. Plus, the locations of the 2 stories and the movie are all different. People’s names have changed. The reason that people have wanted revenge has changed. The MacGuffin has changed.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Yet, even with all of that, the movie, <em>FOR YOUR EYES ONLY</em> turned into one of Roger Moore’s best movies playing James Bond.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>And the 1968 movie <em>ICE STATION ZEBRA definitely influenced the final version of the movie FOR YOUR EYES ONLY. </em> Dan and Tom lay it out in this episode!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>So, take a listen. </p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We assume you’ve seen the movie <em>FOR YOUR EYES ONLY</em>.

And, that gadget is on display in this exhibit! Which one?!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Eric focuses on is the fact that this is the Museum of Science and Industry.

Alfred Hitchcock’s Storyboards with author Tony Lee Moral
<p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><em>Alfred Hitchcock’s Storyboards</em> with author Tony Lee Moral</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Dan and Tom bring back author Tony Lee Moral to discuss his latest book <em>Alfred Hitchcock’s Storyboards</em>. We focus on Hitchcock’s spy movies in today’s discussion. Unquestionably, Hitchcock was notorious for his use of storyboards and his practice has been emulated by many directors. </p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We read an advance copy of the book prior to its February 6, 2024, release. Tony’s book is an excellent look at why Hitchcock used storyboards. He also discusses how Hitchcock used them to set up the filming of the scenes in his movies. He drills into many of Hitchcock’s movies. In addition, one great aspect of the book is the sheer number of storyboards he includes in the book that Hitchcock used. And the industry tricks of the trade including how those have changed over time with the use of technology.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Another thing we love about this book is that Tony teaches us about making movies. He does this by showing us how Hitchcock did it. For example, in his discussion on THE 39 STEPS, Tony talks about how TikTok users can use a similar approach to what Hitchcock did to string together a bunch of shorts. We drill into this with Tony in this episode. It’s a great and fun way to learn.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">WHERE TO GET <em>ALFRED HITCHCOCK'S STORYBOARDS</em></h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>You can order <em>Alfred Hitchcock’s Storyboards</em> at the following links (These are non-affiliate links, SpyMovieNavigator receives no compensation if you use them):</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:list --></p> <ul> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li><a href="https://tonyleemoralbooks.com/">tonyleemoralbooks.com – A site of mystery and suspense</a></li> </ul> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list-item --></p> <p><!-- wp:list-item --></p> <ul> <ul> <li><a href= "https://titanbooks.com/70874-alfred-hitchcock-storyboards/">Alfred Hitchcock Storyboards @ Titan Books</a></li> </ul> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list-item --></p> <p><!-- wp:list-item --></p> <ul> <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Alfred-Hitchcock-Tony-Lee-Moral/dp/1789099544/ref=sr_1_1?crid=41D1XWQJLSP7&keywords=alfred+hitchcock%27s+storyboards&qid=1707168443&sprefix=alfred+hitchcock%27s+story%2Caps%2C327&sr=8-1"> Alfred Hitchcock Storyboards: Moral, Tony Lee: 9781789099546: Amazon.com: Books</a></li> </ul> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list-item --></p> <p><!-- wp:list-item --></p> <ul> <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/708209/alfred-hitchcock-storyboards-by-tony-lee-moral/"> Alfred Hitchcock Storyboards by Tony Lee Moral: 9781789099546 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books</a></li> </ul> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list-item --></p> <p><!-- wp:list-item --></p> <ul> <ul> <li><a href= "https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/alfred-hitchcock-storyboards-tony-lee-moral/1143731797"> Alfred Hitchcock Storyboards by Tony Lee Moral, Hardcover | Barnes & Noble® (barnesandnoble.com)</a></li> </ul> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list-item --></p> <p><!-- /wp:list --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Share your thoughts</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>So, take a listen – did this discussion help you decide to buy Tony Lee Moral’s book <em>Alfred Hitchcock’s Storyboards?</em> We highly recommend it if you are a movie fan. <em> </em>Let us know your thoughts, ideas for future episodes, and what you thought of this episode by dropping us a note at <a href= "mailto:info@spymovienavigator.com">info@spymovienavigator.com</a>.

And there is a bit of both here.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>That said, TOPAZ is a spy movie with a lot of espionage. It isn’t an action movie with some spy elements as we often get in today’s spy movies.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>The setting for TOPAZ is 1962 at the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis which brought the US and the Soviet Union to the brink of nuclear war.

Rick English Talks KINGSMAN stunts
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Rick English talks KINGSMAN stunts with Dan and Tom on their show Cracking the <em>Code of Spy Movies</em>.

He’s been doing stunts in movies for over 23 years. </p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">RICK'S ROLE AS A DOUBLE</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>So, what is it like to double a star? How much of the stunt work did Colin Firth do, versus Rick? Was Rick hurt doing any of the stunts? What is the role of wirework in his scenes? How many cuts did the church fight scene take? What is it like to jump out a window ahead of an explosion? How did they get the character Whiskey into the meat grinder in <em>KINGSMAN: THE GOLDEN CIRCLE</em>? Finally, what is an antitragus?</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Rick talks about these issues while focusing on the church fight and the bar fight (manners maketh man) in <em>KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE</em>.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">HOW TECHNOLOGY IS CHANGING THE GAME</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We also discuss how new facial recognition and replacement technologies popped up on the market just before this movie was made. That meant that the way he had to film these scenes was different than he’d experienced in the past. Listen to find out how. It is fascinating to hear how technology is changing the filming of stunts.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Plus, Tom talks about how watching the church fight scene frame-by-frame helped him to identify some of the places where facial replacement was used. Don’t worry, we don’t go through it frame-by-frame here. But, once you listen, if you watch that scene, you may be able to pick up a few of these replacements as well.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>This episode helps the moviegoer understand the role of the stunt performer and how they are used.

THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD - Decoded!
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><em>THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD</em> is often considered one of the best spy movies of all time. We couldn’t agree more. In this episode, Dan and Tom decode this classic.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>As far as spy movies go, <em>THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD</em> is dark, and probably a bit more realistic in terms of a spy’s life, than anything James Bond does. There are no Aston Martins here, no tuxedos, no glamorous venues – nothing that could make you smile or feel relaxed much. The decision to film it in black and white was brilliant and adds to the overall feeling of despair.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>The story is fairly complex, and you must pay attention.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Dan and Tom will help guide you through some of the complexities, although they disagree on the ending.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>They also discuss how this movie fits into the time of the Cold War and real-world double-agents.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>The cast, led by Richard Burton, Claire Bloom, and Oskar Werner, is top shelf. Burton earned a BAFTA Best British Actor win and an Academy Award Nomination for his role as Alec Leamas. The movie picked up seven BAFTA nominations, winning four of them. It also earned an Academy Award Nomination for Best Art Direction-Set Decoration, Black and White, among other industry awards. Oskar Werner picked up a BAFTA nomination for Best Foreign Actor as well.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>So, have a listen and you’ll “Be in the Know.” This should be a must-see for any spy movie fan.

Uwe Brosamle Interview – How to visit James Bond filming Locations!
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>One of the leading experts on traveling to James Bond filming locations worldwide joins us at Cracking the Code of Spy Movies for this amazing segment, our Uwe Brosamle interview! Uwe Brosamle estimates he’s traveled to over 80% of the James Bond filming locations - and he’s done it in just 10 years.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Most James Bond fans love discovering and visiting James Bond filming locations - and certainly, it is a passion for Dan and Tom - so it is great to talk with an expert on how to do it right.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tips from Uwe Brosamle</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>In this fascinating interview, Uwe tells us how he tracks down the locations, meticulously plans his trips (this takes A LOT of time), and gives all of us some tips for planning these special trips which can save us all some serious time. It is great to be able to learn from an expert.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Uwe also talks about some of the challenges in getting into a location once he’s located it. He’s had to deal with renting boats, big dogs, trying to get onto private property, government property, and properties that are just hard to get to (expect that you will have long walks to get to some locations). Of course, he gives us some suggestions for dealing with these issues.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>In his travels, he has come across many very helpful people. Often by accident. He tells some stories about these interactions, including one where he knocked on the door of a famous actress. She was most gracious.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Finally, Uwe talks about some of the artifacts he has found at filming locations. Apparently, after a shoot, let’s just say, clean-up isn’t quite thorough. That can work to a filming location traveler’s benefit!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>So, have a listen and you’ll “Be in the Know” about traveling to James Bond filming locations!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>If you want to see Uwe Brosamle's fantastic pictures from his filming location travels, <a href="https://bit.ly/3M6enAS" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">check out his Facebook page</a>.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>You can check out all of our podcast episodes on your favorite podcast app <a href= "https://spymovienavigator.com/spy-movie-podcasts/">or our website</a>.

DIE ANOTHER DAY – Pre-Title Sequence Decoded!
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><em>DIE ANOTHER DAY</em> - pre-title sequence decoded! We know that Tom hates <em>DIE ANOTHER DAY,</em> but strangely, he has <em>some</em> kind things to say about this pre-title sequence. Hint: Tom likes hovercraft, surfing, and flamethrowers. Interestingly, Dan has more negative thoughts in this episode than Tom does, and he doesn’t hate the movie.

THE TRAITORS - A British B Movie Makes the Grade

Does it make the Grade?</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Low budget B movies were made, for the most part, to be the second billing on double features. Low-budget doesn't necessarily mean a bad movie. In this episode we dive into THE TRAITORS without giving away the movie.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>THE TRAITORS has a good cast starring Patrick Allen, James Maxwell, Jacqueline Ellis, and Zena Walker.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We look at the high-level plot, what makes this a B movie, how espionage is portrayed, the music and more. For the most part, this is espionage!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>At Spy Movie Navigator, one of our goals is to identify Influences. Specifically, where a movie was influenced by or has influenced other spy movies and real life. THE TRAITORS has significantly influenced parts of <em>THE FOURTH PROTOCOL</em>, <em>ALLIED</em>, the the Harry Palmer Series, <em>ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE</em>, <em>THUNDERBALL</em>, <em>LICENCE TO KILL</em> and more. Take a listen to find out about these influences.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>THE TRAITORS is a fairly common name for movie titles and television shows, including the currently airing games show.

UNDERCOVER BROTHER - Decoded!
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Join Dan and Tom as they bring you <em>UNDERCOVER BROTHER</em> - Decoded! The 2002 movie <em>UNDERCOVER BROTHER</em> is a spy movie that they’ve been wanting to decode for a while. It is very wacky but very racially focused. Some might call it a blaxploitation spoof movie.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>They look at this movie, in part, against the backdrop of the recent announcements that the Ian Fleming books are being rereleased and rewritten to remove 'offensive' text. <em>UNDERCOVER BROTHER</em> has many racial jokes against both black and white people.

Ian Fleming's Works Edited for Offensive Language - What Would Shakespeare Say?
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Ian Fleming Publications has announced that Ian Fleming's works are being edited. They are removing or altering language in the books.

British Intelligence - Decoded
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><strong><em><strong>BRITISH INTELLIGENCE</strong></em></strong> is a movie starring Boris Karloff! Not as Frankenstein, or in the <em>Bride of Frankenstein</em>, or <em>The Mummy</em>, no! He scared all of us for so long in these movies – but here . . . today. . . we are looking at Karloff as a spy in none other than the 1940 movie, <strong><em>BRITISH INTELLIGENCE</em>!</strong></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>In short, the basis of the story is that in World War I, the British are making plans to counter the German offense after the German invasion of Poland. They are making plans but somehow the Germans are aware of their plans and are pounding the British troops as a result -as many casualties are resulting in the Germans somehow knowing the British plans. </p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>And no one knows HOW the Germans are discovering these plans. So, James Yeats, played by Leonard Mudie, as head of British Intelligence – must get to the bottom of this! Arthur Bennett, the cabinet minister, assembles the powers for regular meetings at his home, for planning, and for figuring out how the Germans are getting their plans. </p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><strong><em>BRITISH INTELLIGENCE</em></strong> is full of intrigue, espionage, double-crosses, and real spy stuff. It is extremely well done. It stars Boris Karloff as Valdar, Margaret Lindsay as Helene Von Lorbeer, Bruce Lester as Frank Bennett, Leonard Mudie as James Yeats and Holmes Herbert as Arthur Bennet. Therefore, you know the acting is superb!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>In this episode, we point out some interesting connections, and things to definitely look out for. We'll enhance your viewing experience!

Steven Saltzman Interview - Steven talks James Bond and more
<p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2><strong>Steven Saltzman Interview.</strong></h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>In honor of the 60<sup>th</sup> anniversary of James Bond movies, and to get a unique perspective on the making of the first 9 James Bond movies, we invited a very special guest, Steven Saltzman, to join us today! So join us now for this very special and exclusive Steven Saltzman interview!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Steven had a unique childhood as he grew up as the James Bond franchise blossomed. He got to see the movies made and knew the cast and crew, and their children. How? Well, Steven is the son of Harry Saltzman and was a child when the Bond series started. Harry Saltzman co-produced the first nine Eon Productions James Bond movies. He also produced the first three Harry Palmer movies <em>THE IPCRESS FILE</em>, <em>FUNERAL IN BERLIN,</em> and <em>BILLION DOLLAR BRAIN.</em></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Hear Steven Saltzman talk about being on the sets of those early Bond movies, how the family we always hear about in the Bond movies works, how he made some extra money in high school because of his James Bond connection, and many more fun stories of the James Bond world.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2><strong>Harry Palmer</strong></h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>And of course we talked about the Harry Palmer movies his father produced. And, we talk a bit about the <em>THE IPCRESS FILE</em> television series that was released in Spring of 2022, for which Steven was an Executive Producer.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We have an episode with Steven about the <em>THE IPCRESS FILE</em> series in our <a href= "https://spymovienavigator.com/episode/steven-saltzman-an-interview-with-the-executive-producer-of-the-ipcress-file-6-part-series/"> March 13, 2022 podcast episode</a>. However, that interview was recorded in between the UK and US releases. We had to couch what we said in order to not give anything away. Now, Steven is able to give us a producer's insight in delivering a show for both the UK and US audiences. There are some things you, the audience member sitting in your own country, probably wouldn't think of. However, the producers must think about these things, as there are cultural differences.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2><strong>What's Next?</strong></h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We also discuss some of the projects Steven is working on now. He even gives us a scoop!</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>So, join us for this fun Steven Saltzman interview.

Hitchcock spy movie techniques with Tony Lee Moral
<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Do you want to understand the Alfred Hitchcock spy movie techniques? Tony Lee Moral returns to discuss his new book "<strong>The Young Alfred Hitchcock's Movie Making Masterclass</strong>". His book teaches you Hitchcock's process of making a movie. We discuss these techniques with Tony and apply them to how Hitch used them in making his spy movies.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Some of the topics we examine are how Hitchcock pionered "the wrongfully accused man", the double chase (or double pursuit), using exotic locations, suave villains, how action and fight scenes are filmed, and of course the MacGuffin, and more. As an example, we look at the Hitchcock quote about spies: “heroes in their own country and villains in the foreign country” and look at how he used this idea in his spy movies.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>In addition to looking at where Hitchcock used these techniques, we also discuss where other spy movies have used some of these techniques.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>It's an interesting discussion looking at our favorite movie genre through the lens of the master director.

Richard Maibaum Papers - James Bond - Curator Interview
<p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>Richard Maibaum Papers at the University of Iowa</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Richard Maibaum, who wrote many of the James Bond movie screenplays, donated his papers to the University of Iowa. Pete Balestrieri is the curator for Science Fiction and Pop Culture at the University of Iowa Library.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Join Dan and Tom as they have a discussion with Pete on the Richard Maibaum Papers. This collection includes a large selection of Maibaum's working materials he used to write 13 James Bond movies. Pete shares his insights into many topics on the development of the movies. For instance, he talks about Sean Connery's thoughts on the role of Pussy Galore in <em>Goldfinger</em> and what Richard Maibaum did because of those thoughts.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>One fascinating part of the collection is the research folders. These contain articles that Maibaum clipped out on a variety of topics he researched for plot points. For instance, there is an article on blimps which he clipped out 3 years before <em>A View To A Kill</em> came out.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>But, to us, probably the most interesting part of the collection are the treatments that Maibaum wrote. These are the stories before they are turned into screenplays. As a result, you get to see how the story evolves, sometimes dramatically.It is very cool to read a movie's treatments and see the evolution of the movie's story.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>It's not just James Bond</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Another key point of the disucssion is that the James Bond materials are only part of the collection. Richard Maibaum wrote many other movies and plays. While you are there you can see some of Maibaum's notes on his other projects including includes <em>OSS</em>, <em>The Great Gatsby</em>, and <em>Tank Force</em>.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Pete discusses the collection, how you can see it and other collections they have at the Library such as the papers from Norman Felton who produced <em>The Man From U.N.C.L.E.</em></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>This is a wide-ranging, fun discussion. Pete knows his movie and shares his passion for them in this interview.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>Find out More</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>You can find out more about the special collections at the University of Iowa <a href="https://www.lib.uiowa.edu/sc/" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Contact us at <a href="mailto:info@SpyMovieNavigator.com" target="_blank" rel= "noreferrer noopener">info@SpyMovieNavigator.com</a></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Webpage address: <a href="https://bit.ly/3eLldh5" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://bit.ly/3eLldh5</a></p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:create-block/libsyn-podcasting-block --></p> <div class="wp-block-create-block-libsyn-podcasting-block"> <div class="libsyn-shortcode"></div> </div> <p><!-- /wp:create-block/libsyn-podcasting-block --></p>

This movie started the James Bond franchise for movie fans 60 years ago. Additionally, it set the stage for the all of the James Bond movies that followed. It even helped shape future non-Bond spy movies. So, join us as we celebrate <em>Dr. No's</em> anniversary by taking a look at how it shaped what we see in the franchise going forward.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>We start where the movie starts with the gun barrel sequence and continue on through the music, the classic line "Bond, James Bond", the humor, the gadgets, the exotic locations, the great poster's like this Mitchell Hooks' poster for <em>Dr. No</em>, and much, much more. Then, of course, we look at Sean Connery. We see how he established the character of James Bond while initiating the role.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>What hooked you?</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>So, which item that premiered in <em>Dr. No</em> hooked you on James Bond? Was it the Walther PPK, the Bond Girls, the villains, the chases, the martini's and the finer things in life? We discuss all of these things that showcase <em>Dr. No</em>'s impact on the franchise.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>What's missing in Dr. No that we see in later James Bond movies? Well, the pre-title sequence and the DB5 come in movies that followed <em>Dr. No</em>. Of course, we talk about that too.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --></p> <p><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>What do you think of Dr. No's Impact on the franchise?</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --></p> <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Once you've listened please give us feedback.

Terence Mountain interview - He was in ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE & DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER!
<p>Tom, Dan and Vicky interview a mountain of a man - Terry Mountain who was in two James Bond movies: <strong>On Her Majesty's Secret Service</strong> (as Rafael, one of Draco's guys fighting Bond on the beach, and other scenes) and <strong>Diamonds are Forever</strong> (one of Blofeld's guards) - as well as 7 episodes of <em>The Saint</em>, and lots more. Great interview with some really great back-stories & behind-the-scenes stories - fun stuff all the way! </p> <p>Listeners: </p> <p style="padding-left: 40px;">"Loads of little inside stories and nuggets of info from Terry. I'd already heard some of his escapades at one of the SNS meet-ups, but he elaborates further here. And I whole heartedly agree with him, that Lazenby should have done more. I'm also in agreement, that OHMSS soundtrack is one of the best! - Denise</p> <p style="padding-left: 40px;">"Terry is obviously genuinely passionate about the world of Bond. He always comes across as being very real and authentic."<br /> <br /> “Listened to this earlier. Brilliant to hear the stories especially paying the bill one!” - Nick</p> <p style="padding-left: 40px;">See waht we are talking about with Terry, with shots from the movies, on our YouTube channel: <a href= "https://youtu.be/sJsWaRpOTLM">https://youtu.be/sJsWaRpOTLM</a></p> <p>Leave us your thoughts at <a href= "https://spymovienavigator.com/contact-us/">https://spymovienavigator.com/contact-us/</a></p> <p>Terry Mountain is one of the good guys!

The Spies Who Loathe Me - Why Bond is a Franchise Target!
<p>Join Tom and Dan as they investigate why Bond still tops Mission: Impossible, Bourne and what about George Smiley. </p> <p>Every other spy movie franchise loathes and despises James Bond 007 – and the EON Productions 50+ years of success. Why? </p> <p>Because no other franchise, let alone spy movie franchise, has survived and thrived for over 50 years on the big screen, in books and novelizations. Bond is Big – and it may always remain big if EON Productions continues to do the right things – some things more right than others, but they have pretty much done the right things for 50 years. </p> <p>But is there a challenger?!</p> <p>All Podcasts: http://bit.ly/31w8oer</p>

His World Never Dies - The Evolution of James Bond - in Movies
<p>Interview with<strong><em>: His World Never Dies: The Evolution of James Bond</em></strong> author, Dave Holcomb - Book is a nice read and in this podcast we interview the author!</p> <p>We read a lot of books on spies – real spies and movie spies – so we can gain a little more insight into the spy movies that we are having fun with. This book looks at Bond from a unique vantage point. Kind of a cool title considering the EON just announced the new Bond film (November 2020) is called <em>No Time to Die</em>! </p> <p>Dave weaves a story on how Bond has evolved over the decades with some unique insights, a treatment of sexism and race, and a very interesting concept of how history and the Bond series goes through what is called a History Gyre, which suggests that history does not only repeat itself, but that it moves in an evolutionary circle. Dave suggests that the Bond films go through this same evolutionary circle. It is a great book, which we enjoyed reading, and we had a great conversation with the author, Dave Holcomb - listen now! </p> <p>We'd highly recommend it, and you can find it on <a title= "His World Never Dies - The Evolution of James Bond" href= "https://www.amazon.com/His-World-Never-Dies-Evolution-ebook/dp/B07SJVQWMX/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=His+World+Never+Dies&qid=1570216139&sr=8-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Amazon</a>, just search <strong><em>His World Never Dies</em></strong>. </p> <p>All Podcasts: http://bit.ly/31w8oer</p>

Other spy-based tv shows wouldn’t get their US big-screen debuts until years later (namely <em>I Spy</em> in 2002 and Get Smart in 2008, even the Man From Uncle in 2013).</p> <p>All Podcasts: https://bit.ly/3dF9ueE</p>
