Cassino Royale
'Q's' Assistant
Sir James Bond aposenta-se no auge da fama. A CIA, a KGB e a Scotland Yard imploram que ele volte à ativa para uma última missão. Em meio a uma multidão de imitadores e aproveitadores, Sir James provará que ainda é o único, e verdadeiro, Bond. Sátira ao agente criado por Ian Fleming. Este filme não é considerado um legítimo representante da antologia "James Bond" no cinema. Ele também é notável pelos inúmeros problemas e brigas que ocorreram durante as filmagens (incluindo discussões entre Orson Welles e Peter Sellers, que chegou a abandonar a produção, deixando as suas cenas inacabadas), chegando ao ponto do filme ter tido vários roteiristas e cinco diretores!
