Documentary that sets out to tell the story behind the making of
the James Bond films. When American producers Harry Saltzman and
Albert Broccoli acquired the rights to adapt Ian Fleming's 'James
Bond' novels for the big screen they couldn't have dreamt of the
success they would find. However, as the franchise became a licence
to print money conflict inevitably emerged, causing Saltzman and
Broccoli to fall out with their lead actor, Sean Connery, then each
other. Despite the increasingly fraught drama behind the scenes,
the on-screen drama of the Bond films has continued to draw
audiences to the cinema 50 years after the release of the first
film, 'Dr No' (1962). Among the Bond luminaries to contribute to
the documentary are George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton,
Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig.

21st film in the 007 Franchise introduces a new 007 and goes back
to its roots. Daniel Craig stars as the latest incarnation of James
Bond, special agent and international man of mystery and intrigue.
The first Bond film in many years to be based on one of the
original Ian Fleming books, Casino Royale is a quieter, subtler,
more brooding breed of action film, which is not to say there's any
less blowings up, dirty tricks, sexy women or chase sequences. Bond
is in Montenegro at a highly exclusive casino where Le Chiffre
(Mads Mikkelsen) a moneyman for an international terrorist group,
is raising funds for their misdeeds through high-stakes gambling.
007 must infiltrate the group and ultimately defeat the rogue
player, both on and off the tables.

Daniel Craig returns as James Bond 007 in the globe-trotting
franchise for which the term action movie was invented. After being
betrayed by Vesper in Casino Royale, Bond (Craig) turns his sights
on those who controlled her. Interrogating Mr White (Jesper
Christensen), Bond discovers that the shadowy organisation
responsible for blackmailing Vesper is a lot more powerful and
dangerous than he ever imagined. Tracing a link to Hawaii, Bond
soon crosses paths with Ukrainian beauty Camille (Olga Kurylenko)
who leads him to megalomaniacal businessman Dominic Greene (Mathieu
Amalric), head of the organisation known simply as Quantum. Wishing
to control one of the world's natural resources, Greene's
organisation has a finger in every government agency worldwide, and
it falls to Bond to keep one step ahead of his friends, and
enemies, to stop Greene holding the world to ransom.

Daniel Craig narrates this feature-length BBC wildlife documentary
celebrating the diversity and tenacity of life on earth. Edited
together from some 10,000 hours of footage from the BBC's natural
history archives, the film focuses on the cyclical journey taken by
all living things, from their own birth to the moment they deliver
youngsters of their own and the next generation is born.
As deeply cool and urbane as its unnamed hero, LAYER CAKE follows
the precise, articulate XXXX (Daniel Craig) as he maneuvers through
what he intends to be his last business deal in modern-day London.
His business? Drugs. On the cusp of turning 30, XXXX has amassed a
personal fortune, deftly avoiding the violence and ugliness so many
others in his trade fall prey to by following a strict personal
code defined by discretion and clean detachment from the products
he sells. Just as XXXX is poised to cash in and get out, Jimmy
Price (Kenneth Cranham), the top layer of this particular
underworld cake, hands down two tasks: find Eddie Temple's (Michael
Gambon) drug-addicted daughter, and unload a mass of ecstasy stolen
in Amsterdam by the sloppy, loud Duke (Jamie Foreman), who is
exactly the type of wannabe gangster that XXXX has spent his career
avoiding. Further complicating matters is Tammy (Sienna Miller), a
sexy young blond who XXXX meets in a club and can't get off his
mind.
First-time director Michael Vaughn (producer on SNATCH and
LOCK, STOCK, AND TWO SMOKING BARRELS) brings a practiced eye to the
film, creating a slick, highly entertaining visual style which
perfectly complements the twisting storyline. The London drug world
comes to vibrant life in screenwriter J.J. Connolly's adaptation of
his first novel, which retains its keen ear for slang and its eye
for detail, giving LAYER CAKE a thrilling ring of authenticity. In
the role of XXXX, Daniel Craig has a commanding presence,
portraying a man who is so good at his job that he may never be
permitted to leave it, regardless of how smart he is or how well
he's planned. Like the best in the crime-thriller genre, LAYER CAKE
is unpredictable, unsettling, and unforgettable.

Sci-fi film noir filmed in a unique style in which real actors are
transformed through motion-capture animation to create a black and
white comic-strip style. Set in a near-future Paris, the film
depicts the city as a menacing place dominated by the vast and
all-seeing Avalon Corporation, which has insinuated itself into
every aspect of modern life through its sales of the ultimate
commodities: youth and beauty. When a beautiful young scientist,
Ilona (Romola Garai) is kidnapped, police officer Barthélémy Karas
(Daniel Craig) is assigned to solve the case. His investigation
leads him down a deadly path, and he eventually discovers that
events that took place back in 2006 have irrevocably affected the
future of humankind with dire consequences.
