    I deeply appreciate the powers of observation that Dalton's Bond displays in both films. Examples include noticing Felix's fallen tuxedo flower in Milton Krest's facility, in LTK. Also in said film: him assessing his situation at lightning speed when realizing that Sanchez unwittingly saved him the night before from the Hong Kong narcotics team. That is not too much on display in modern Bond films.

      Dalton feels like the smartest Bond. Connery and Moore had photographic memories and knew everything but it felt forced narratively to demonstrate Bond's knowledge.
      W/Dalton his smarts more naturally service of the story, and suspenseful in the unpredictability(due to the pace he has to make decisions).
      Through the performance alone Dalton feels perfectly believable no matter what gun he's holding, when he's gotta fly a plane, even doing wheelies w/A tanker truck. He's always completely believable.

    The first time I saw The Living Daylights I wasn't sure what to make of Timothy Dalton. I grew up watching Roger moore, and missed the wink and a nod of his Bond. Upon the 2nd viewing, however, I fell in love with Dalton's interpretation of James Bond. At that point I got it. This was Ian Fleming's Bond. The, "Real," Bond. License To Kill, for me, was the better movie, with an even more ruthless Bond. A Bond who is burned out, sick of the job, but keeps doing it because there isn't anyone as good as him to take his place and his loyalty to Queen (now King) and Country was greater than his loyalty to himself. The two scenes listed here are among my all time favorites, too. But I'd add another. When Bond fails to kill Kara when she was the sniper in the window, and he tells Saunders, "Stuff my orders," and all of the following dialogue ("If they fire me I'll thank them.") and expressions from Dalton - it's simply brilliant. Those three scenes, to me, made Dalton the all time greatest Bond. The only Bond that really followed what was on the page in Ian Fleming's novels. Dalton was brilliant, and it just kills me that he never got that third Bond movie.

    Dalton I think is the only actor out of all of them who already had an established career BEFORE he was bond. Like he had more than one role that he was known before he did bond. The others as good as they were had roles before doing bond but it was bond that was a career defining role for them, that wasn’t the case for dalton. To him bond was just another role to add to his resume

    I am so glad i found this video. Timothy Dalton is my favorite too.
    You are spot on about his facial expressions. Among all the actors who have played Bond, i always get the sense that he does the best 'acting'. I couldn't explain it properly. But now i have a video that does that.
    You can probably make everything work by pure charm and charisma as James Bond. Say someone like Adam West when he played Bruce Wayne.
    That's probably why he's unnoticed in the Bond fan community. I love his performance. The fact that both of his films while not perfect are really really good.
    And you get the vibe that he should have been the villain. While playing the hero he can be so menacing.
    Thank you for pointing out that his Bond is so good in his job. I didn't really think about this. You pointed out Living Daylights. In Licence to Kill, he infiltrates the villain's organization and creates seeds of suspicion. Making them kill each other.
    I just love his Bond.

    I agree with all that was said in this. My introduction to Bond was via the books before seeing the Connery films, which I thought were okay, but Bond in those was different, it wasn't until I saw Timothy Dalton's Bond I again met the Bond from the books, not the playboy Bond or womaniser Bond of the earlier films, he cared about the women he met and took his job seriously, all that he had experienced weighed heavily upon him.

    Really enjoyed this.
    Timothy Dalton has always been my favorite bond, his acting, you could really belive that Dalton is bond, his looks everything about him, probably the biggest let down of all the bond movies is that Dalton only did the two, I really believe that if Dalton did 5 bond movies up to goldeneye, he would have been the best bond ever.
    TLD and LTK are among the best of all the bond movies, due to Dalton.

  • @Leppter
    @Leppter Před 7 měsíci +12

    Dalton in TLD is by far the best character study of the Bond character in any of the movies. I find the relationship with Kara to be the only believable one of any Bond film (yes that includes Casino Royale which I personally find quite forced). You can actually see Dalton emotionally changing throughout the film as Kara's kinder nature starts to rub off on him.

  • @FranzSanchez-ky9up
    @FranzSanchez-ky9up Před rokem +16

    I grant you that close-up of Dalton is very powerful and the only one that compares to Craig's in the Casino Royale torture scene, but according to the commentary track, it was second unit director Arthur Wooster that shot that scene. It seems so much different in its framing and moody, yet naturalistic lighting, compared to other scenes in the film, as Glenn tended to shot everything in medium and mastershots. He was never that bold in his directing, but another rare close-up of Dalton is in Licence to Kill when he finds out from Pam, that he's further complicated matters by going on a personal vendetta. The stark realization on his face is so clear, that there was no need to further pad out the scene of Bond making some kind of dramatic, intimate speech... You just feel what he's thinking. Dalton was (and is) such a great internal actor, that it's a shame that Glen didn't take more advantage of how expressive he is.

  • @Love-Sensibility
    @Love-Sensibility Před 7 měsíci +5

    Nolan love Tim's Bond so much he based some of the scenes in his Batman movies of Tim's Bond movies. Difference is, even if they say Tim's got less charm than other Bonds, he's still charming. Actually, romantic I would say. And intense. Batman never gave me that vibe...Dalton's Bond can smile and be happy, like most of his scenes with Kara. Batman doesn't. No smiling when its serious, huh? I supposed its fitting...

    That was brilliant, sir! Thank you for your analysis here! Timothy Dalton's Bond will always be my Bond. His portrayal in The Living Daylights & License To Kill was a refreshing take on the 80s tough guy action hero trope. Dalton's Bond was always in control, even when he was angry. Dalton made Bond dangerous again.

    Really excellent video!!! Cheers for this! And to the point!
    Dalton is the best Bond. People just didn't get it, is why they prefer the Brosnan's and the Craig's versions, both of which are all made for the stupid people of the world who don't understand, who prefer to munch on popcorn while they waste 2 hours being "entertained" rather than be informed or have to be force to think! LMAO and that's the truth.
    "WHO'RE YOU WORKING FOR??!!" (see what I did there, Who're LMAO), came straight from the OTHER J.B., as in Jack Bauer of the stupid show 24, of course!!!!! People don't want to think, they want Bond to represent themselves, clueless and bungling but gets all the fun and all the action and women who throw themselves at him, supposedly. LMAO That's why Craig's Bond fails on ALL COUNTS, it's amazing how LAZY Sam Mendes was in his rip off of the French New Wave and Truffaut, it's ridiculous how the imitation of the supposed love lost sentimental B.S. Mendes tried to infuse into Craig's Bond ended up with Bond dying in the final instalment (yes we know Mendes didn't direct it, but he almost did).
    Brosnan was just a caricature joke, purely done for box office money, not to represent the novel realism, even Roger Moore started out as intense and in your face, and even that had to be changed because the producers felt that they didn't want anybody using that to represent the British Man in general as a stereotype gruesome animal with no humanity, you see? is why they went the comic comedy way, after all, it was also the time of Monty Python and Peter Sellars when Moore was trying his bit, and Brits wanted to distance itself and its men from the historical brutes of war and Imperialism but rather a jovial gentleman with a sense of humour and decency.
    How strange the world works, eh?

    When I see the waiters mouth move but no dialogue audible it always reminds me of the WorkPrint version of the movie where the waiter says “I’ll get a stretcher” & Bond replies “Better make that two” suggesting that Saunders was cut in half. For the theatrical release they decided to leave it to the imagination & used the “Better make that two” line for the pre title sequence. The WP also shows that they toned down how abrupt Bond was with Saunders during the Koskov defection scene. A couple of words were also changed Bond calls Koskov “General” in the the movie, but calls him “Georgi” in the WP. Also they changed him telling Saunders to meet him at the “bridge” to meet him at the “border” which happens to be on a bridge. I do however wish they had left scene between M & Bond as it was in the WP. After Bond says “it was a split second decision, it was instinct”, M replies “Or accidie?” & Bond says “revulsion with one’s occupation”. It actually sums Bond up pretty well & the extended scene was wonderful, sadly the went for the shorter version which just goes to recalling 008 etc.

      There is also a very small clip from the Licence to Kill WP where Bond calls Lupe a “lying slut” on the Wavekrest. There is also a wonderful sinister laugh just after the “compliments of Sharky” killing.
      Both WPs use music from old Bond movies, the LTK one uses mainly AVTAK whereas the LD one uses that plus music from Goldfinger. It would be great if they included the workprints on the 40th anniversary Blu rays in 2027 & 2029 respectively. They sadly won’t of course.

    That close-up? Benson nailed it, I believe, when he wrote that Bond doesn't know if he can trust Kara, did she have a hand in what just happened? He already didn't trust Koskov, but Kara was an unproven quantity who hadn't given him reason not to trust her, until maybe now. And he's just had the Whittaker dot connected to the Koskov dot. Meanwhile, another agent is dead in front of him and all he knows is Koskov is pointing the finger at Pushkin, even although he already has major doubts about Koskov.
    With all of that going through his head, it's not hard to understand why his primary emotion isn't clear.

    My favorite bond is Roger Moore ... because he took everything for granted .... Timothy would be the favorite of Ian Fleming if he had been alive .... because he fits exactly 💯 with Ian's description of bond in his book 📖

    I personally prefer Living Daylights to License to Kill. I like the more complex narrative of Daylights. I like the movies where Bond has to play detective to figure out what's going on and who the bad guy really is. And, yes, the final confrontation in Daylights is meh, the penultimate action set piece with the plane is one of the greatest in Bond history. That's the real finale for me.

    Really great, i completly agree that scene was Dalton´s best scene even though License to Kill is a better picture.
    The relationship with Saunders was not on good terms earlier in teh movie nut in this scene Dalton´s bond thanks Saunders for his efforts and it his suttle expressions that show Saunders that he is very thankful for his work and so when he gets murdered it makes him furious. Great choice of scenes! I saw License to Kill in the theatre(my first Bond on the big screen)and it is a favourite of mine.
    A shame Dalton did not get to do a third.
    I truly enjoy watching him and for those who say Dalton isn´t funny watch Hot Fuzz,he is hilarious in that one!!

    Timothy Dalton did a great performance of both movies and his bond was so much closer to what the character really truly was so he did lay down some building blocks Pierce brosnan was fun to watch and I do like Pierce brosnan but everyone has their guy Timothy Dalton came so close if he was offered to do a remake of never say never again I would see that movie in a heartbeat but who really knows at this moment in time Timothy Dalton by far is a great actor but all the actors who have betrayed James Bond they're all good it's a great franchise I was sorry and sad to see that Daniel Craig ended his tenure but hey he's in his fifties I'm in my fifties Timothy Dalton is a great actor. They all are great actors......

    The Living Daylights is the first film in which Bond displays insubordination. It is warranted and Bond carries out his disobedience skillully. Everyone else in Bond's outfit wants to take the easiest route and ignore the signs of fraud that Bond is detecting. In the sniper scene Bond makes a decision that turns out to be right, and gets a bucket of dirty water thrown in his face by an envious colleague. After the event Bond has to work hard to get M on his side, and has to keep a stiff upper lip when his colleague Saunders doesn't.
    In Licence To Kill they turned Bond's independent-mindedness into a joke. Dalton was forced to perform a parody of the character he had created.
    What is peculiar about the Bond girl in The Living Daylights is that she is not just a pretty thing with lots of money. She does something. She plays a musical instrument. That girl seems to be quite happy in her modest little life in Communist Czechoslovakia until she is drawn into intrigue and deceit, and has no choice but to be rescued by Bond. Bond needs her as an intelligence asset and is ready to use sex as a tool of information gathering, because that is part of his job. Bond could have just used her and tossed her in the gutter. In real life that probably would have happened. Instead, Bond has the adventure with her and then takes her back to where she likes to be, a concert hall. After f*cking her of course.

    Of course Dalton was the best actor from these, who played Bond. I mean He have the best acting skills. Other actors, even Sir Connery are not in Dalton's league. Pacino, De Niro, Robin Williams, etc. - this is where Dalton's belongs. Unfortunately He did not have enough good movies. Hollywood did not fully recognised His talent or He have bad agent.

    I like all the actors. I think my favourite is a 3-way tie between Dalton-Brosnan-Craig 😂
    Had Craig quit after Skyfall, he would probably have been my favourite, with Casino Royale and Skyfall being top tier films, and QoS having a great performance from him as well. Sadly his last two films didn't do anything good for his legacy. Brosnan had a lot of charm and was really classy, which is a different take, that I also enjoy. Unfortunately both Tomorrow Never Dies and Die Another Day completely wasted Brosnan's talent, and TWINE, while pretty good, could have been a lot better. GoldenEye is amazing though. Dalton did great in both of his films, but he only did two and neither are as strong as GoldenEye, Casino Royale and Skyfall imo, but I still like them a lot.
    OHMSS is my favourite in the series though.
