Bond's "life". as it has been framed for storytelling purposes, is remarkably free of any backstory or outframe information. Good policy for screenwriters, because it allows the Bond brand to accept intechangable male modules who play bond. The result is that the Bond *du jour* must always play his role in very broad, unspecific ways. There is far more committment to maintaining the Bond brand than anything that smaks of (distracting) emotional realism.
Anyone so impressionable to try and replicate Bondness in the real world will come off as overdetermined, plastic, and ultimately a disposable commodity anchored in a disposable commodity culture.
A great deal more could be learned from watching Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight in Midnight Cowboy, a classic film about the psychic journey of the archtypical PUA, Roger Dodger for a piercing x-ray into male insecurity, The King of Comedy for the limits of the artificial identity, and all of the Alfred Hitchcock/ Cary Grant collaborations… "James" was in many ways conceived as a parody of Grant from the ground floor up… but Grant, he was the real deal in his prime. While your at it, rent McCabe and Mrs. Miller…. one great antiheroic western…
"I'm not even trying hard... just in the last hour, I've had two women who have become very friendly with me...you are the man! Your information has radically changed the way I think... by the way I'm 48 years old, so this is really cool!"
