01 - Dr. No
Hello and welcome to Pay Attention, 007, the podcast where hosts Tessa Swehla, Ryan Silberstein, and Elyse Debra watch all 25 of the Eon Productions James Bond films in chronological order beginning with 1962’s Doctor No and ending with 2021’s No Time to Die…unless another film comes out before they are finished!
In Episode 01, the hosts discuss the very first James Bond film, 1962’s Dr. No. Directed by Terence Young, the film introduces Sean Connery as James Bond, a classy, MI6 agent with a penchant for martinis and women. Bond is sent to Jamaica to investigate the sudden disappearance of an MI6 operative and finds danger, romance, and a plot to disrupt the US space program! The film also introduces Bernard Lee as M and Lois Maxwell as Miss Moneypenny.
The hosts discuss everything Dr. No, from the production, to the quips, tropes, and the villains, so be prepared for spoilers.
