There's a prurience to Bond that I adored as a young man coming into puberty in the pre-Internet porn-topia, Bond was a gateway drug for guys of my generation. It's a very particular ruling-class fantasy punctuated by gadgets and automobiles- film noir, except the code our ambiguous hero plays by is more Humphrey Bogart's from In a Lonely Place than Bogey's from The Maltese Falcon.

He's a rapist in Fleming's novels (and consider the conquest of Pussy Galore in Goldfinger)-literally in some instances, in others just given to taking advantage of women in extremis. Bond is psychotic, you see, a serial philanderer and killer given license to do both by a broken state and the illusion of order. I like it the best because it feels melancholy and hopeless. I like it the best because despite a few typically silly Bond moments, it has Bond's Moriarty, Blofeld (Telly Savalas in that film), acting as the spear in our hero's side, and it has Bond attempting to address his own failures as a human being and being taught, essentially, that the world is a cold place. It's the one where Bond falls in love, marries, and in the end is unable to protect his new bride from her demons.
