What was Pierce like to interview?
Did he ever say which film (of his) he liked best?
I thoroughly agree and thank Mr. Desowitz for being gracious enough to visit us here and for his candor. Book ordered.
The seemingly eternal debate around here with Pierce is that his characterization was a "work in progress", whereas the other actors seemed to find some sort of style. Pierce's comment that he "never quite nailed it" lends creedence to this line of thinking. I think Craig is still in that phase until we see how he interprets the classic characterization, but he seems to have some very solid ideas about that. Any thoughts from either that you feel proves or dispels either notion?
Has your opinion on his Bond/Bond movies changed since you spoke to him?
Also, did Dalton ever comment on GE?
Die Another Day?
Nicely said Bill, if I may call you that. Although I can be critical because I never plan to write a book on the subject (although I am currently writing a possible future book on an entirely different subject), I've always been of the thought that there are always some positives and good scenes in every Bond film and would never classify any of them as a "turd". I appreciate your objectivity and wish more people would be that way.
I'm probably one of the older members here, I first saw a TB/YOLT double feature in 1968 when I was close to if not 7, and agree 1000% that the Bond one is first exposed to has a lot to do with their perception of both the actor and the character. Sir Sean was my first cinematic hero and still my all time favorite Bond, and any Bond who has come after is always compared to my perceived "ideal". The 50th anniversary is a great and momentous occasion to release such a review, and I wish you all the success in the world with it and eagerly await my copy arriving in the mail.
Thank you for all your hard work and info, can't wait to pick up this book. Heading over to Amazon to pre order it right now
