Shaken and Stirred: The Jewish Origins and Themes of James Bond

Description

Director Sam Mendes' 007 is more personal than all previous Bonds: we have an origin story, identity crises and a plethora of biblical imagery. From the Jew who inspired Flemming's Bond - Sidney Reilly, born Shlomo Rosenblum - to the latest movie in the franchise, this presentation uncovers the disturbing Jewish themes of the spy of spies.
