Description of this Casino Royale 1967 Poster
Casino Royale is a spy comedy parody produced by Columbia Pictures in 1967, featuring an ensemble cast. It is loosely inspired by Ian Fleming's first novel, James Bond. The film stars David Niven as the "original" Bond, Sir James Bond 007. Forced out of retirement to investigate the deaths and disappearances of international spies, he must soon confront the mysterious Dr. Noah and the SMERSH . The film's tagline: "Casino Royale is too much... for just one James Bond!" refers to Bond's ruse to deceive SMERSH, in which six other agents pose as "James Bond", namely the master of baccarat Evelyn Tremble (Peter Sellers), millionaire spy Vesper Lynd (Ursula Andress), Bond's secretary Miss Moneypenny (Barbara Bouchet), Bond's daughter Mata Hari, Mata Bond (Joanna Pettet), and British agents Coop (Terence Cooper) and The Detainer (Daliah Lavi).
Charles K. Feldman, the producer, had acquired the rights to the film in 1960 and attempted to have Casino Royale made as a Bond film from Eon Productions; however, Feldman and the Eon series' producers, Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman, were unable to reach an agreement. Feeling that it could not compete with the Eon series, Feldman decided to produce the film as a satire. The budget grew as various directors and writers became involved in the production and the actors expressed their dissatisfaction with the project.
Casino Royale was released on April 13, 1967, two months before Eon's fifth Bond film, You Only Live Twice. The film was a financial success, grossing over $41.7 million worldwide, and Burt Bacharach's musical score was praised, earning him an Academy Award nomination for the song "The Look of Love". Critical reaction to Casino Royale, however, was generally negative, with many critics considering it a confusing and disorganized affair. Since 1999, the film rights have been held by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, distributor of the Bond films by Eon Productions.
