Not necessarily. Even though their respective tones are somewhat different, they both feature a "renegade" Bond.

October 23 sounds like a great double bill.

Any CBNers planning on attending this conference?

I was approached by a gentleman by the name of Clive Young who is writing a book called HOMEMADE HOLLYWOOD. He asked if he could show a short segment of my 1978 homemade movie MOONRAKER at the Hofstra University symposium. So I take pride in that my little film will be up there with giants like Raymond Benson, Rabert Davi, and now Tom Mankiewicz.

So much for my 15 minutes of fame.

Here is the list of events I received by email the other day:
