James Bond was a neo-fascist gangster, says John Le Carré

From the Telegraph James Bond was a neo-fascist gangster, says John Le Carré.

I do have to agree that there wasn't much stealthy about James Bond. As Dr No pointed out, James Bond was pretty much a "policeman" - though not so "stupid", IMHO.

Maybe he was a distraction for the real spy work going on in the background.

I still haven't watched "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy" yet... (remake in 2012?) And Rubicon looks promising if not a slow...

    1. Sean Connery turned 80 today
    2. A member of MI6 was found today murdered in London, stabbed mulitple times.

    Coincidence?

    Sean has again sold another soul to the devil to keep his dashing good looks.
