Casino Royale (1967) | comment |
The one that's a complete parody.The second adaptation (after the 1954 Climax! episode) of Ian Fleming's Casino Royale, released in 1967. It was originally planned to be a straight adaptation of the one novel that Eon Productions (at the time) didn't have the rights to, but producer Charles Feldman instead decided to mount it as spoof of James Bond and spy films in general. Unfortunately, a Troubled Production ensued.Sir James Bond (David Niven) is forced out of retirement to investigate the deaths and disappearances of various British Secret Service agents, which turn out to be the work of the spy organization SMERSH. Organizing the recruitment of a new team of agents, he also plans to confuse SMERSH by naming all of them "James Bond" — even the women. The film proceeds to jump back and forth between the misadventures of the faux-007s before most of them are brought together for the climax. They are: Evelyn Tremble (Peter Sellers): A baccarat expert sent to challenge SMERSH operative Le Chiffre (Orson Welles) at the titular casino, in the one plot thread that is derived from the original book. He is recruited and assisted by... Vesper Lynd (Ursula Andress): A former colleague of Sir James Bond who's gone into high finance. Mata Bond (Joanna Pettet): Sir James's swinging daughter, the product of his tragic affair with Mata Hari. She's sent behind the Iron Curtain to investigate a SMERSH fundraising auction. Cooper, aka "Coop" (Terrence Cooper): His specialty is resisting the advances of women, a vital skill given that the dead agents were all seduced to their dooms by SMERSH's roster of female spies. The Detainer (Daliah Lavi): "The new secret weapon" of the group. Jimmy Bond (Woody Allen): Sir James's "disappointing" American nephew.The music was done by Burt Bacharach.Eon Productions (owners of the main James Bond franchise) acquired the rights to the novel in 1999, and eventually produced a serious, Truer to the Text (and expanded) adaptation in 2006, which should not be confused with this film. | |

Comforting the Widow: Lady Fiona McTarry is a SMERSH agent impersonating M's widow - at M's ancestral home she enters Bond's bedroom, demanding to be comforted (and ruin his Celibate Hero image). When he politely declines, she takes it as an insult to her honor. | |

One Last Smoke: Jimmy Bond has a last cigarette in front of a Latin American firing squad ("I'm gonna give it up any day now") - it's an impact bomb he throws at the squad. He climbs the wall laughing in triumph - and lands on the other side...in front of another firing squad. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: It's mentioned Sir James Bond had been awarded the Victoria Cross at Mafeking, a siege that took place in 1899-1900. David Niven is in his late 50s here, but this would date Bond as around 85 at least. Bond had an illegitimate daughter by Mata Hari, who was executed in 1917. The daughter is played by a 25-year old Joanna Pettet, but she would have to be 50 at least. But then, this movie is not at all logical or linear. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The sequence focusing on Evelyn Tremble and Le Chiffre has a recognizable reference to the torture scene from the novel — not only in that something like that happens, but there's a chair in the middle of the room Tremble wakes up in and Le Chiffre tells him not to worry about it. Woody Allen plays Jimmy Bond, James' American nephew. The very first adaptation of Casino Royale in 1954, for the CBS series Climax!, made James an American and called him Jimmy. | |

Never Heard That One Before: Evelyn is at a training center preparing to take the role of James Bond. He's shown gadgets for the field, including a pen that sprays poison gas. He tells the obligatory 'poison pen letter' joke, and his instructor wearily finishes the sentence with him, pointing out that all new recruits say that. Some years later, Roger Moore as 007 says it, but gets a free pass (apart from Q's usual peevish reaction.) | |

Alternate Continuity | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_450c5a85 | comment |
Alternate Continuity: The film has no connection to the standard Bond continuity... or does it? It is made specifically clear in this film that after the retirement of the original Bond, his name became nothing more than a codename for new spies - and according to Sir James, one of the spies to receive it is "a sexual acrobat who leaves a trail of beautiful dead women like blown roses behind him", seemingly an implicit reference to Sean Connery's Bond. Also keep in mind that the last Bond movie with Connery, You Only Live Twice, came out the same year, and it was clear that another actor would have to take over as Bond. | |

Planet of Steves: Sir James Bond, now heading the secret service, assigns all his agents the name and number of James Bond 007 to confuse the enemy. Previously, when he had resigned, his superiors had assigned his name and number to the 007 we all know for agency morale purposes. | |

Bond looks appropriately abashed and keeps his hands off her for the rest of the film. | |

Casino Royale (1967) / int_537dd8fe | comment |
Affably Evil: Dr. Noah. His grand plan does certainly spring from pettiness and is threatening genuinely destruction — he intends to kill off all men taller than him — but it's also him standing up for the little guy, after a fashion (since goofy guys like him will now get their choice of women, who will all be turned beautiful by the same device). He seems to treat his many, many underlings well; the only one he kills is Le Chiffre, who's Faux Affably Evil anyway. He does hold the Detainer as a captive in his quarters, but tries to convince her to get in on his scheme and the new world order rather than forcing her into it. In fact, his affability is key to his downfall, as she is able to trick him into swallowing his own bomb pill. | |

And then everyone else in the casino joins in on the action. No one is safe, especially when the whole casino explodes at the end, killing everyone inside. | |

Casting Gag | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_6ec4232f | comment |
Casting Gag: Perhaps the more conspicuous example is casting Ursula Andress - the inaugural "Bond girl" - as one of the James Bond proxies. Among the many inside jokes in the movie is Stirling Moss, considered one of the greatest racing drivers of all time, having a cameo as a man standing right next to a Formula 1 car who is instructed to "follow that car" and runs after it on foot. David Niven being cast as the original (Sir) James Bond itself is this: Ian Fleming cited Niven as his ideal casting choice for Bond, but he certainly didn't envision him in a comedy. | |

Real Life Writes the Plot | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_786bf97f | comment |
Real Life Writes the Plot: It's unclear how the increasingly zany plot was conceived. The best guess is that even though Charles Feldman had the right to make a straight James Bond entry, he feared that he would not be able to compete with the official Bond movies, and he directed each writer who came along to make the film more and more of a parody. As mentioned above, however, Peter Sellers had been hired while the film was still intended to be a serious Bond movie, and he saw it as a way to broaden his acting portfolio. He was not amused when the film veered towards a wacky parody during the filming process, and after many fights with the producers, the director and his co-stars, including/especially Orson Welles, Sellers either was fired or quit. After that, Feldman, scrambling for a replacement story, decided to go all-out and pack the film with seven Bonds, and also hired a different director for each act of the film, resulting in its extremely disjointed feel. The above account is not supported by the "making-of" documentary on the DVD release, which, while it does support that Feldman originally intended to do a serious Bond, goes on to claim that the multi-Bond/multi-director approach had always been planned. What is known is that Sellers left the production prematurely, forcing the filmmakers to incorporate an outtake of Sellers and use creative editing in order to finish his part of the film. | |

Gainax Ending: The last few minutes of the film have to be seen to be believed. Cowboys ride their horses across the plains before barging into Casino Royale, a pair of seals fight each other, bubbles swarm the area as chaos ensues, then Indians parachute from a warplane into the casino. Someone calls the police, then we see policemen driving a vintage car in greyscale…except that there are so many of them that they can't fit into the car! Later on a seal with a "007" tag claps its flippers at Indians dancing around a burning teepee-shaped structure. That's not even the entire list of weird moments that occur during the ending, and suffice to say they don't really make sense. | |

What Song Was This Again?: When the film was translated into French and German, it was considered a good idea to also record dubbed versions of Dusty Springfield's "The Look Of Love". Mireille Mathieu not only sang the French version "Les jeux d'amour", but also the German version "Ein Blick von dir". In 1970, she and Dusty re-recorded the English original, by the way. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: The end title theme says that there are 'seven James Bonds.' Actually, there are eight in the film — David Niven (Bond himself), Peter Sellers (Tremble, codenamed James Bond), Terence Cooper (Cooper, codenamed James Bond), Woody Allen (Jimmy Bond), Daliah Lavi (Lady James Bond), Joanna Pettet (Mata Bond, codenamed James Bond), Barbara Bouchet (Moneypenny, codenamed James Bond), and Ursula Andress (Vesper, codenamed James Bond). However, the scene that accompanies this song, with the 'seven James Bonds' in Heaven, is lacking Terence Cooper, who apparently somehow DIDN'T die in the casino explosion...? Or they may mean Lady James Bond, aka The Detainer; she was last seen before her attempted escape from a second-story bathroom window. Given the extended period of time between her entering the bathroom and the explosion, it can be assumed that she either fell to her death (the first floor IS rather tall), or that she was still trying to descend the drain-pipe during the explosion. Actually they're all there. All eight of them. The one that the 'seven James Bonds' song doesn't acknowledge is Sellers, since he died in an earlier scene and so he's not among the seven James Bonds that died at the Casino, he was already in the afterlife. Notice how all seven of the just deceased ones are dressed like angels but Sellers stays in the same Scottish garments he died in.note This, however, was likely due to Sellers quitting the film before completing his work on it. The presence of Vesper is an example of the trope being taken in another direction as she leaves the story well before the explosion, and thus her presence in the afterlife is left unexplained. | |

Faux Affably Evil: Le Chiffre's a jolly gambler, but at the same time he has no qualms with blowing up the auctioneer via telephone when the auction is ruined by Mata Bond or torturing Evelyn Tremble after Evelyn wins the game. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: When Vesper Lynd recruits Evelyn Tremble, the film suddenly becomes considerably less wacky, though still heavy on comic Double Entendre; it's where "The Look of Love" comes in after 40+ minutes of slapstick. Most of Peter Sellers' scenes come as this compared to the rest of the film, in part because he plays his role mostly straight — reacting to the strange world he's in rather than being just another wacky resident of it. This is because Sellers was cast when the movie was intended to be a straight adaptation, and he apparently considered the final script a bait-and-switch. He either refused to deliver the comedic lines as scripted and ad-libbed, or may have even out-and-out rewrote his scenes with the collaboration of an outside screenwriter to make them hew closer to the original conception he had been promised. Accounts vary. | |

Obfuscating Stupidity: Jimmy Bond's introductory scene has him nervously trying to talk a firing squad out of shooting him ("You do realize this means an angry letter to the Times?"), but he successfully pulls off a distraction when they're about to fire and scales the wall behind him to escape...although it turns out that there's another firing squad about to shoot someone else on the other side and he barely escapes that. This foreshadows Jimmy turning out to be Dr. Noah, the Big Bad in the late going. | |

Take That!: Niven's Bond calls Sean Connery's Bond a sex maniac who dragged the James Bond name through the dirt, and takes his fellow spies to task for relying on gadgets. Peter Sellers was fired/quit midway through the shoot due to chronic absences and miscellaneous poor behavior, so the filmmakers making up for this by having his character shot to death by the suddenly turncoat Vesper can be seen as this as well. | |

Cast Full of Writers: The film falls into this category - largely because the actual script was such a mess that producers had to get the cast (who included experience writers such as John Huston, Orson Welles and Woody Allen) to try and make some sense of it.

Fluffy Cloud Heaven and Fire and Brimstone Hell: Spoofed in the final scene. "Six of them went to a heavenly spot, the seventh one is going to a place where it's terribly hot." | |

Casino Royale (1967) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Terence Cooper's character, "Coop" (a.k.a. James Bond), is the only Bond in the entire film to resemble the Bond of the EON film series (even though he is closer in appearance and personality to the later Roger Moore Bond). | |

Hiccup Hijinks: Jimmy Bond is tricked into swallowing an aspirin that makes him hiccup 1,000 times and then explode. The explosion destroys the Casino Royale and kills pretty much the entire cast. | |

Evil Plan | |
Casino Royale (1967) / int_f2d8e3c2 | comment |
Evil Plan: Pretty much the same as the book, except Le Chiffre is working for SMERSH and his double-dealings are a side-plot to SMERSH's master plan, which involves murdering spies all over the world (like the Real Life SMERSH, a Soviet counter-intelligence agency) and to fill the world with a biological agent at the behest of Doctor Noah aka Jimmy Bond. The agent will kill all men over 4'6" (his height) and make all women beautiful; in other words leaving him as the "big man" who gets all the girls. | |

Violent Glaswegian: A bunch of tough Scotsmen who challenge Bond to a game of catch with stone cannonballs, a Highland marching band that roughs up Peter Sellers in a programmed hallucination, and Scots henchmen in Jimmy Bond's underground lair. Also, French police officer Mathis speaks with a Scots accent, which worries him. | |
