    • Trivia
      EON productions, who are the producers of the official James Bond film series are notoriously protective of their property and rarely give permission for clips to be used in other studio's movies for fear of the clips being misused or lampooned. In this case Dame Helen Mirren and director Roger Michell personally asked the Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson for permission to use the Scene from Dr No (1962) and promised the scene would be used in context and not adulterated in any way. A small fee was paid (which was donated to charity) and Broccoli and Wilson were allowed to view the finished film with the promise of that if they didn't like how the scene was used then it would be removed before release. Fortunately they had no complaints.

      When visiting Kempton in his remand cell to discuss his ongoing court case, his QC leans on the "brick" cell wall, which clearly bends and rebounds, seemingly made of a rubberised material cast to resemble old painted brickwork.

    A well acted movie
    Not a lot of glitz, great cast, likeable characters, simple plot and very little special effects, a real throw back.
