Dr. No, EON Productions first James Bond film based on Ian Fleming’s sixth James Bond 007 novel gets a big YES from movie-goers at the time of release in 1962, and has been a staple of Bond films every since. Dr. No is Dr. Yes for spy movie fans, and new spy movie fans who are focused on Bourne and Mission: Impossible and more recent Bond films with Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig, would enjoy going back to the first James Bond film, Dr. No, to which, we think, they will also say Yes!
For Dr. No, this is one of the publicity posters used to promote the film and the theme song music first associated with the EON Production James Bond films!
When he turns and opens his car, we find out a great deal about these three men. All three of the the men turn and shoot Strangeways with pistols with silencers.
This Dr. No clip is one of the most critical and important scenes in the entire James Bond 007 franchise The interaction between Sylvia Trench, in red, and James Bond at the baccarat table at Le Cercle at Les Ambassadeurs in London sets up the entire Bond.
Bond fans know that often Bond uses a Walther PPK pistol as his main weapon.
Bond arrives in Jamaica and is suspicious about the driver who came to pick him up. He makes a call, while Felix Leiter watches.
Felix Leiter plays a major role in many Bond films to come (played by 6 different actors so far), but Dr. No is his first appearance and his first meeting with Bond.
We have come to expect car chases and virtually any other kind of chase in spy movies now, and especially in Bond movies.
In this important clip, we see the very tough and dark nature of James Bond – here, he is a cold-hearted killer as he tricks Professor Dent into thinking he, Bond, is asleep in the bed.
OK, Sylvia Trench was the first real Bond Girl, but Honey Rider is remembered as the first WOW Bond Girl as she walks out of the waters at Dunns River Falls in Jamaica in Dr. No.
Quarrel has talked about the island legend of a fire-breathing dragon on Crab Key and that is why no locals want to venture to this island.
In this scene, Dr. No confronts Bond and we learn of SPECTRE for the first time – and we will hear about this evil organization in many EON Production Bond films to come.
After escaping capture, and overtaking one of Dr. No’s workers and taking his has-mat suite, amazingly, Bond disrupts the interference with the American missile launch
The finale is grand of course, and Bond somehow manages to escape and with Honey Rider. And Dr. No is, well, No-More.
