About this deal

If they’re coming for economic reasons, if they have something to contribute, then I don’t blame the poor bastards for getting out! Even though school was imminent the next morning, 007 let you escape into a world of glamour and excitement.

With titles like "Confession's Of A Window Cleaner", "Can You Keep It Up For A Week", "I'm Not Feeling Myself Tonight" and alike, this was the state of the British movie industry in the 70's and was all that was keeping it alive. He was sometimes his chief detractor but explained, “Listen, if I say I'm shit as an actor, then the critic can't, because I've already said it! His work has appeared in The Independent, NME, Vice, The Guardian, British GQ, Empire, Lonely Planet Traveller and numerous other publications. From the nudist films of the 1950's to the titilating "sex-coms" of the 1960's and 70's, it's all here in chronological detail complete with movie stills, posters and "behind the scenes" stories.Quite frankly most of these films are not very amusing, as comedies, but can be interesting visually at least. After you’ve convinced yourself that this isn’t 007, and that Roger will be along any minute, you get to the point of the back-story.

Most famously, Robin Askwith, Fiona Richmond and Mary Millington became seventies superstars in movies that put boobs on screen and bums on seats. This article argues that Skyfall (2012) was influenced by and responded to the contemporary debate over the future of the British Union and the referendum on Scottish independence. In a nutshell, any actor worth his salt appeared in one of these mostly rubbish yet irresistible films.

It’s a niche market, but if you’re looking for a unique historical critique on British film, with a wry sense of humor, look no further than Keeping the British End Up.But Broccoli’s gamble had paid off- the film was a huge critical and commercial hit and arguably gave Roger Moore his greatest Bond film.
