Fleming v Film - From Russia With Love Part II
Quantum of History - A podcast by Donald Waldron
Categories:
Join myself and Thomas Creighton for part II of our discussion of Fleming v Film! So often people talk about how when movies goes awry that they should have gone back to Fleming, go back to the source material for a good movie. While that is certainly true, does it shortchange what the filmmakers did to turn the written material into a blockbuster film? Join myself and Thomas Creighton as we discuss From Russia With Love, the novel and the film. We break down the film and the novel in great detail, and we evaluate how From Russia With Love is so relevant even in modern times. I gush over the classical Cold War espionage tale, and we talk about experiences we've had with evil men, mad men, dangerous men, and the cultures that shape one of the Crown Jewels of the Bond series. If you're a die hard Bond fan, you won't want to miss this one. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/donald-waldron/support
