Abstract:"Licence To Thrill is the definitive scholarly study of the full history of the James Bond film series from the first picture, Dr No (1962), to the present. It considers the origins of the films in the spy thrillers of Ian Fleming and examines the production histories of the films in the contexts of the British and international film industries. James Chapman explores how the films have changed over time in response to developments in the wider film culture and society at large. He charts the ever-evolving Bond formula, analysing the films’ representations of nationhood, class and gender in a constantly shifting cinematic and ideological landscape. Licence To Thrill has been described as an ‘indispensable’ work for film historians and Bond fans alike. For this third edition, Chapman has thoroughly updated the existing content, written a new Introduction and added new chapters on the most recent films – Quantum of Solace, Skyfall, Spectre and No Time to Die - which star Daniel Craig as Bond. He charts the ever-evolving Bond formula, analysing the films' representations of nationhood, class, and gender in a constantly shifting cinematic and ideological landscape."
