A Close Look at 'A View to a Kill'

A Close Look at 'A View to a Kill'

A Close Look at 'A View to a Kill' is the updated edition of the original 2011 analysis, James Bond in Our Sights: A Close Look at 'A View to a Kill'. This edition includes the 2012 Bond blockbuster, Skyfall, in the overall analysis, as well as a foreword by Spyfest creator, Matt Sherman. There is also an expanded introduction, and additional notes on 'A View to a Kill'.

The James Bond film series is a worldwide box-office phenomenon, with cultural reference points including cars equipped with ejector seats, heroines equipped with suggestive names, and henchmen wielding steel-brimmed hats. The escapist series can nevertheless accommodate more subtle and understated plays with its established formula, and - as author Andrew McNess demonstrates - a sterling example of this can be found in 1985's A View to a Kill. Through an analysis of the film's characters, plotline, themes, music, action sequences, and more, A Close Look at 'A View to a Kill' illuminates an underrated classic in James Bond Cinema. This superbly engaging and insightful read offers a refreshing take on the pleasures of escapist cinema.
