The Disc set is a top quality digital restoration - and I can recommend it..both the film and extra special features disc! But to me it is still the film ON the disc that sold it: the Film that began the Passion for Bond ! "Dr. No " is all "firsts" - Sean Connery , "Albert R. Broccoli" nickname "Cubby" as producer would be soon a popular one at dinners all over the world. And the icon lines ! The woman actually started it: "Trench .....Slyvia Trench" , she said, and he replied "Bond....James Bond" and the rest is history! America's FBIguy, J. Edgar Hoover would soon be having author Ian Fleming to lunch, to see if any of his neat spy inventions could be truly and practically employed - especially homing devices - the ones we had then failed as soon as the subject entered any busy traffic. The introduction of the amazing Miss Moneypenny - M - Q - The first of the super-villains: Joseph Wiseman as the steel-handed Dr. Julius No. The early villains were most certainly patterned on super-villain, Hitler, who had only recently been vanquished. The real James Bond was a spy in WWII and comrade to Fleming. Two action pals who often re-appear made their debut here, in "Dr. No", too: Quarrel senior , whose son, Quarrel Jr. goes on to be so handy and brave in action. And the amazing Felix Leiter - US CIA - in the first film played by Jack Lord, who did not fail the role in any way! Of course, the most famous of the "firsts" , the iconic Ursula Andress - the first of the Bond Girls - Muse for all the Bond Girls who came after! There is the sophistication and seriousness of the matter, but there is the appeal to our cowboy-shows child , in that we enjoy the absolute knowledge that our man will win the game! This Disc production , again, is a fine one and top quality - hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I loved the books, all the films and now the DVDs to entertain and charm me.Read full review
