Terence Young directed this first of a long line of screen adventures with
Ian Fleming's unflappable British Secret Service
Agent 007 in a fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek style that set the tone for the rest of the popular series.
Sean Connery sets the standard by which all future takers must measure themselves as the insouciant and devil-may-care
James Bond. The story concerns
Bond being sent to Jamaica to investigate the murders of a British agent and his secretary. During his investigation, he comes into contact with the evil and unscrupulous Chinese scientist
Dr. No (
Joseph Wiseman) who, living on an island called Crab Key, is hard at work in a nuclear laboratory.
Dr. No's scheme is to divert rockets being fired from Cape Canaveral off their charted course and to blackmail the United States to get their rocket launches restored to normal. Helping
Bond is
Ursula Andress (mostly undressed in a bikini throughout most of the film), as well as bad gals like
Zena Marshall, who almost leads
Bond to his death in her bedroom, and
Eunice Gayson, a
Bond pickup in a London gambling house who proves herself a greater adversary than even
James Bond can handle.
