ReconCinemation starts the Christmas season with a bang! We're back with a whopper of an episode as Jon and David take a look together at James Bond with the first installment of the franchise: DR. NO! It's a huge deep-dive discussing the birth of the character in Ian Fleming's novels, the evolution into a film franchise, the origins of the production, the casting of a young Sean Connery, and the importance of director Terrence Young's lasting contributions to the character. Plus, Jon and David's controversial favorite and least favorite moments, comparing the film with the novel, a close look into how the film has aged -- including a discussion of the more problematic elements that would continue to persist in future entries -- and how it stands from today's perspective with young and old audiences alike!
