PLOT SUMMARY
A look at the title sequences from the James
Bond films, with special attention paid to the life and works
of the legendary Maurice
Binder.
CAPSULE REVIEW
Dull. The Bond title sequences
are certainly important to the films but do they really warrant 23 minutes
of documentary? The biography of Binder
is interesting but too brief and superficial to be of any real, lasting
value.
