"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...

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.
