Jazz FM's guide to Casino Royale with The Nomad Cinema
"why is it that people who can't take advice always insist on giving it?" The original Casino Royale (1967) may have been a spoof comedy, but this 2006 take on Ian Fleming’s first #Bond novel is a very dark affair. #DanielCraig stars in his first role as 007 in what the producers were hoping would be a successful reboot of the Bond franchise - and they certainly succeeded. Set at the beginning of Bond’s career as a secret agent, we see a less experienced and far more vulnerable man, as he falls in love with a treasury employee [the exquisite Eva Green] assigned to help him bankrupt a terrorist in a high-stakes game of poker. No need to gamble on us though: go all in and enter to win a pair of tickets to this contemporary classic when it arrives in the extraordinary, atmospheric setting of the Hippodrome Casino in London’s West End on Sunday 31st August.
