Since there is a slight difference in release dates of the latest James Bond on DVD my US order actually arrived two days ago. It won’t be released in Ireland for another couple of days.
In any case, if you do get the two disc edition the documentaries are well worth watching.
Daniel Craig comes across as a really nice unassuming guy.
I’m never too sure how seriously I should take any of the comments on DVDs. You know damn well that the studio is behind the production, so it’s not as if they’re going to say anything negative about each other. Even if the director hated working with Daniel Craig he couldn’t very well say so…
Pity there isn’t more focus on Eva Green, though she might get more in the Bond girls section that I haven’t watched yet.
It’s also fascinating to see how they put the entire production together, but as Damien already pointed out, I’m fascinated by some of the odder things, such as special edition soundtracks…

I was part of a production team behind a TV interview with Daniel Craig and I was (pleasantly!) surprised to see how unsure of himself he was and how nervy he was about the interview before, during and after!
It’s really nice to see that so far he hasn’t changed a bit and I hope he never does.

Was this recently ie. since he became Bond?
He strikes me as really human, whereas others, such as Roger Moore, lack the warmth

Hi Michele,
This was before Bond came out, he had just finished filming it, but I was lucky enough to meet him after Bond was released and I can definitely say he was exactly the same.
He comes across as a very normal person! (Amazingly so for an actor!)

He may sign up for the film Blindness based on Jose Saramago’s book.
The book is brilliant and I’m really pleased a film is being made.

That sounds very interesting and he sounds like the kind of guy you could go and have a quiet drink with 🙂
He came across as much more intelligent than a lot of the others I’ve seen interviewed over the years

Have you seen Layer cake with him in it. Excellent film, can send it on to you if you fancy.
Well worth a view!

Layer Cake was good and I really liked Sword Of Honour.
