Casino Royale (2006)

Ian Fleming wrote Casino Royale at his Jamaican house in the first weeks of 1952, in about two months, to take his mind, as he put it, off the shock of getting married at 43; when it was done he treated himself to a gold-plated typewriter. Half a century on, the film kept the novel's bleak heart and brought its trappings up to date. Bond's heart is stopped by a poisoned martini and restarted with a defibrillator kept in the glovebox of his Aston Martin, and even the product placement becomes a punchline, when Vesper guesses that his watch is a Rolex and he corrects her: Omega. Jeffrey Wright, meanwhile, made Felix Leiter a quietly watchful presence at the poker table, the start of a run that would carry him through to No Time to Die.

This original British Quad is double-sided, made for lit cinema displays, and unfolded. It comes from the country that gave the world Bond, and from the film that gave him back.
