A coffee table book in miniature, packed full of amazing photographs taken during filming of Daniel Craig's first outing as Bond, "Casino Royale" - highly recommended; my only quibble is that there's only one photo of the iconic Aston Martin.

While the cover of Bond on Set: 007 Filming Die Another Day somehow made the film look like a moody noir piece, this one, for a film which actually is pretty moody, goes with the photo taken in a public toilet. A strange pick.
That aside, there are some lovely shots here, capturing offscreen moments with the stars and glimpses of how hard everyone is working to make the film stand out.

Beautifully made book with behind-the-scenes shots and photos of my favorite movie of all time. Wouldn't have minded if it was longer.

Beautiful photography, but could have done with more words, particularly as some intriguing shots need explanation.
