Casino Royale The first book about agent James Bond, from 1953. After it there will be 11 more. And the film will come out in 2006. The first book and a rethinking of the franchise after 20 films. The film will be darker and more "human" than its predecessors. Bond resembles a living person, with his doubts, experiences, and inner fragility. I like the opening titles. They were made by the studio MK12 (just check out what else they did!). The titles continue the values of the franchise and use the cover of the original book as a reference. Music: Chris Cornell - "You Know My Name." The track's lyrics, the visuals, and what happens in the film intertwine in a short opening. We are here about design, after all, and we so love attention to detail in design. Let us pay attention to them. Watch (YouTube) The track begins with a line about taking a life, and Eva Green's name is shown; her character, Vesper, will die. How symbolic The line about the coldest blood in the veins is simply a beautiful metaphor and visualization. And James will transform into a person who learns to suppress his feelings The line about a diamond cutting through harder men: diamonds is the English name for the suit of diamonds. Here you can think about Bond as an MI6 diamond that cuts through everything living. Or about his emotional experiences, which will cut through his soul. I will leave the rest of the joy of discovery, recognition, or interpretation to you The track "You Know My Name" is available on all music platforms. Chris Cornell, a talented and extraordinary vocalist and musician, died by suicide in 2017.
