Filmed 20 years ago this summer

June-July 2003.

They did pickups in December-January, which explains why XXXX and Terry could see their breath in the binoculars scene at the boat dock.

I think the bulk of the editing was likely done from Feb 2004, and then the release came in October 2004.

Love this film. One of my all time faves.

I miss the boards and all the good conversation we used to find there. It's a shame this current site is so damn dead that nobody cares to converse anymore. Just another sign, I guess, of how things are changing more and more for the worse.

oh well.

cheers.

we are soon approaching the 20 year anniv. of its release.

this movie is so important to me. i plan to re-read both books and do a 'redux' deep dive this summer on the film, JJ, and everything. no reason really, i just feel like doing it. this movie rocks IMO and has become a very big part of my life. (LTUM: Official #1 Worldwide Fan) ....it's just crazy to me it is 20 years old. is that possible? i swear! there is still so much to mine here. it's truly a one off genius work. many many layers (no pun plz) and angles. i still have a lot to say, and since i will have time to indulge soon, i aim to make use of it.

I had to look it up. It’s shot in the country of London , ie. foreign picture, this might be the reason so few have heard of it, let alone seen it.

it's a seminal, legendary film. This is the film that got Craig hired as Bond.
