Everything Or Nothing: The Untold Story of 007

Wyldstaar · 02-21-2013, 11:12 PM

I just finished watching this documentary on Netflix. It is extremely well done, and provides a great deal of insight into the various behind the scenes goings on of the novels and films. Some of it has of course been covered in some of the DVD extras of the past which you may have already seen, but there's a surprising amount of new material and info that I'd never seen before. Plus, it's brand new, so the series is covered all the way up to Skyfall.

Yeah, it's pretty good. The highlight is Pierce Brosnan mocking Die Another Day.

Yeah, I really enjoyed it.

George Lazenby had some good stories.

I respected how George acknowledged his own culpability in the disastrous way he handled the fame he got from being the new Bond. While he mentions the hippie leader who convinced him to take the path which lead to his loss of the Bond franchise, he didn't try to pretend that it was anyone's fault but his own. A lesser man would have just blamed others for his own failure.

Lazenby's short section was one of the best parts of the documentary. He was very honest.

It was a little jarring to see Bill Clinton show up so frequently, but I thought it was pretty excellent overall. Nothing I didn't really know, but it was kinda nice to see it all show up in one place.
