Just when Bond fans thought this year couldn’t possibly get any better, Coming Soon brings us the wonderful news that the feature length documentary Everything or Nothing: The Untold Story of 007, will release on October 5th.
In case you somehow haven’t noticed, this year is the 50th anniversary of everyone’s favorite MI6 agent, and this documentary is certainly one of the best items of the many that this year has to offer.
The only things I’m more excited about are the Bond 50 Blu-Ray set, and of course, Skyfall, but this documentary sounds like an incredible addition, providing everything Bond fans could ask for.
Check out the description from the press release.
“Everything or Nothing” focuses on three men with a shared dream – Bond producers Albert R. Broccoli, Harry Saltzman and author Ian Fleming. It’s the thrilling and inspiring narrative behind the longest running film franchise in cinema history which began in 1962. With unprecedented access both to the key players involved and to Eon Productions’ extensive archive, this is the first time the inside story of the franchise has ever been told on screen in this way.
Director Stevan Riley follows a story that begins with a ground-breaking spy thriller and continues six Bonds and five decades later. While Bond was saving the world from chaos and catastrophe on screen, this compelling documentary draws back the curtain to reveal the battles, threats and real stakes unfolding behind the camera.
Personally, I think the best part will be listening to Fleming talk about his take on the films and seeing the process which took 007 from a successful book series to the most iconic spy of all time. I’m sure the film will provide a ton of behind the scenes footage that fans have never before seen and the prospect of that footage alone makes this film a must-see for me.
Country specific release plans have yet to be determined, but we at least know that someone somewhere will be able to see the feature length documentary on October 5th, and I can only hope that someone is me.
