      We want to live as he has in all 25 movies. Think of what he does...he wins the ladies..survives impossible odds and always saves the world. And best of all he never dies.
      We all want that fantasy in all our lives while remebering the family we have and he does not.

    I was ten in 1963 we lived in Houston, Texas and lived in walking distance to the Broadway Theater. I can still remember sitting in the dark and the huge velvet curtains opening and the ornate glittering gold carvings on the walls and the balcony above and the velvet red seats and then the theme music for Bond starts my first taste of the Bond icon, Dr. No, I was hooked for life. Have not missed one yet and never will.

    That's what I love about Bond. His clothes are perfectly tailored, but never boring. They always have small flairs of individuality that make an otherwise staid and traditional suit and tie combo look cool and confident. The turnback cuffs on the tuxedo, the cocktail cuffs on the shirts, the unorthodox materials like linen for an evening jacket, the camp collar leisure shirts, the reversed cufflinks in Goldfinger (which may or may not have been a wardrobe error but still add to Bond's maverick image), the unorthodox pairings (anybody else wearing barleycorn tweed and a knitted tie would look like a maths teacher, but Bond of course pulls it off to perfection- he even manages to make a cream suit work with a pink tie)... everything he wears reflects the personality within- refined and classy, but also unorthodox and highly individual. He could be in a crowd of men all wearing suit and tie, and he would always stand out as the one wearing it not because he has to, but because he wants to. The character's combination of class, style, and utter self-confidence is the reason he is what every man should aspire to be.

  • @MrImiller07

    I submit that Sean Connery looked and dressed the best as Bond in Dr. No and Goldfinger, i.e. the shawl collar tuxedo, the white dinner jacket, the sport outfit at the end of the golf match, the three piece muted glen plaid suit. Moore's custom tailored clothes became too dandified as his films progressed. Danton's clothes were uninspired. Brosnan's tailored Brioni suits and sport clothes were beautifully made and he has a natural ability to wear clothes well. Craig looks good in formal wear, however, I don't like the Tom Ford designed suits that look like they are made two sizes too small on him and the shirts and ties are poorly chosen. I understand that this may have been a deliberate decision to de-emphasize the clothes, however, I would go back to Brioni.

    • @oliverholmes-gunning5372
      @oliverholmes-gunning5372 Před 5 lety +3

      I imagine it's because Lazenby (with the addittion of a few camp late 60s details, à la Italian Job) dressed exactly like Connery had- in fact, turning up to the audition in a Sinclair suit and Rolex was one of the things that won him the role in the first place. At the time there was no plan to make Bond move with the times, all they wanted to do was keep the same old successful formula, and so they did very little to change Bond's image or personality. There would be very little to say from a tailoring point of view about the transition from Connery to Lazenby (especially since the role then went back to Connery) beyond "yeah, the kilt and the orange turtleneck weren't such a great idea". As for Dalton, I have no strong feelings either way about his tenure as Bond, but the wardrobe for those two movies was incredibly unimaginative and dull. The only innovation it can be credited with is introducing Bond to casual wear outside of a holiday setting, and frankly Daniel Craig was way better at pulling off that look.

    My favorite was For Your Eyes Only. I saw it with my mom in NYC. I had grown up watching the early Bond movies at the drive in. I'm not liking them bringing in a female Bond. Why do some women have to force their way into a man's world. The Bond movies had a little something for the whole family. The sexual teasing through out the movie kept the women glued to the movie not wanting to miss a 💋 kiss not to mention the sexual excitement when Bond got his girl at the end. And the action packed life of a British agent kept the men interested all the way through the movie. All the gadgets Q made especially early on. Only added to the fantasy for both sexes watching. There was such an excitement everywhere as the count down began waiting for the opening night of the new James Bond movie. Anticipating and wondering what exotic location James would be taking us to. It was the kind of movie that made you forget your own reality for the next 2 hours. Please don't change who James Bond is. It's not necessary it's changing what we have loved for over 50 years. WHY would you change the main character that was the focus of all the Bond movies for the last 50 + years. WHY?

      Stewart Stirling My sources indicate that the black tuxedo, whether white tie or black, was invented here, in the US by members of the social elite, old English and Dutch families.
      There is some dispute about the Martini -- some say that it was invented in San Francisco, but that recipe is not what Bond would recognize as a Martini. That appears to have been invented at the Hotel Knickerbocker in New York.

    • @stewartstirling22
      @stewartstirling22 Před 9 lety +12

      Scott Adler Henry Poole and Co. Saville Row London are the tailors who first made a "tailless" dinner jacket for the then Prince of Wales in 1865. It was based on Naval mess dress as I mentioned before. The white dinner jacket was a copy of the military mess dress but in white, not red, and made of lighter cotton or linen for use when the temperature was above 70 degrees for more than 5 consecutive days, in a country in which you were stationed. The word "Tuxedo" is a direct reference to the wearing of the first tailless dinner jacket at the Tuxedo Park ball in 1886.
      The Martini, well happy to concede that the origins were mostly a product of the US but cigarette smoking was quite common in Polynesia and the Americas using tobacco mix and flowers to make the casing. Granted the USA was the first country to industrialise the industry, forgive the use of a "s" instead of "z".

    Why didn't any of the actors have scars down their right cheeks like the character in the novels?
