I think <i>Dr. No</i> should've been added since it was the first James Bond film. I do like <i>Lolita</i> though it was a more radical take on the book while Adrian Lyne's highly-underrated version from 1997 was a more faithful take on the book.thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-73856938322605669482020-04-06T12:00:08.101-05:002020-04-06T12:00:08.101-05:00Come visit East Asia sometime.
