About this product

Product Information

The Remarkable Story of the James Bond Films For over 50 years, Albert R. Broccoli's Eon Productions has navigated the ups and downs of the volatile British film industry, enduring both critical wrath and acclaim in equal measure for its now legendary James Bond series. Latterly, this family-run business has been crowned with box office gold and recognised by motion picture academies around the world. However, it has not always been plain sailing. Changing tax regimes forced 007 to relocate to France and Mexico; changing fashions and politics led to box office disappointments; and changing studio regimes and business disputes all but killed the franchise. And the rise of competing action heroes has constantly questioned Bond's place in popular culture. But against all odds the filmmakers continue to wring new life from the series, and 2012's Skyfall saw both huge critical and commercial success, crowning 007 as the undisputed king of the action genre. 'Some Kind of Hero' recounts this remarkable story, from its origins in the early '60s right through to the present day, and draws on hundreds of unpublished interviews with the cast and crew of this iconic series. AUTHOR: Matthew Field is a film journalist with Cinema Retro magazine and an author. Ajay Chowdhury is a solicitor and has given legal consultation on motion picture, music, publishing, television and theatrical projects. He was the associate producer on two feature films and has contributed to numerous books on James Bond. SELLING POINTS: This is the definitive story of the James Bond series Release to coincide with the 2015 James Bond film Will feature forewords by well-known James Bond film alumni Examines the evolution of the most popular series in cinema history from both a corporate and creative angle Contains unpublished publicity and behind-the-scenes photographs 16pp b/w illustrations
