MOVIE OF THE MONTH: JANUARY 2015

                                                  
Director      : Sam Mendes
Based on     : James Bond by Ian Fleming
Starring      : Daniel Craig
Camera       : Hoyte van Hoytema
Production : Eon Productions
Country      : United Kingdom

Spectre will be the twenty-fourth James Bond film produced by Eon Productions. It will be the second film in the series directed by Sam Mendes and will feature Daniel Craig in his fourth performance as James Bond. 

The story revolves around SPECTRE, an organisation that ‘M16’ continues to fight. But that attempt threatens even the future of MI6, and Bond uncovers a hidden truth that it can destroy everything he has fought to protect.

However, there is a real story within the movie. There had been a litigation starting in 1961 between Ian Fleming and Kevin McClory over the film rights to an undeveloped film script written by McClory into the novel Thunderball.

In 1963 Fleming settled out of court with McClory, which awarded McClory the film rights and in turn enabled him to become a producer for the 1965 film Thunderball, and the non-canonical film Never Say Never Again in 1983. 

Under the terms of the settlement, the literary rights stayed with Fleming. In November 2013 MGM and LLC, the parent company of Eon Productions, acquired the full copyright film rights to the concept of SPECTRE.

Director Sam Mendes revealed that production of ‘Spectre’ began on 8 December 2014 at Pinewood Studios, with filming taking seven months. Sony Pictures had signed a multi-million pound deal with Belvedere vodka for the film.
