Becoming Bond
USA 2017, 89 minutes
Dir. Josh Greenbaum
Genres: Documentary / Film History
Topics: Biopic.
Synopsis: A unique documentary/narrative hybrid chronicling the stranger-than-fiction true story of George Lazenby, a poor Australian car mechanic who, through an unbelievable set of circumstances, landed the role of James Bond in ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE (1969), despite having never acted a day in his life. Then after being offered the next six Bond films and a $1 million signing bonus, he turned it all down.
“The reenactments, while often funny and involving, simply can't hold a candle to the man and his anecdotes.”

2 stars (Good Try) It is light entertainment but it takes too long to get to 007 when his story has more interest and becomes worthy of a documentary. ~Tubbs
