For Your Eyes Only
James Bond hangs on and stands his ground.
WHO IS JAMES BOND? James Bond is a posh elderly gent, the sort you might admire as a mysterious “cool uncle.” You can tell he’s got a past, both as a killer and as a masher, but he seems to have put all that behind him, and even though his face is now completely covered with hideous crinkly skin, he carries his age with grace and dignity. He no longer paws at the ladies and he preaches caution and wisdom as often as he kills guys and blows shit up. This is a Bond one can respect and even feel affection for, and that, following the embarrassing failed-comic spectacle Moonraker is an astonishing achievement.
