Often hailed as the ''best'' James Bond film, From Russia With Love (1963) is celebrated for its direction by Terence Young, memorable performances from Sean Connery in his second outing as 007, Pedro Armendáriz as Kerim, Lotte Lenya as the lesbian villain Colonel Rosa Klebb, and Robert Shaw as Red Grant, the sexually ambiguous SPECTRE assassin. And regardless of its place within the longest-running continuous film series in cinema history, it is also an outstanding example of the British spy thriller in its own right.Llewella Chapman''s study of the iconic film pinpoints its place within the James Bond film franchise, and its significant cultural value to critics and fans as well as this film’s important place within British cinema history more widely. Drawing on a broad range of archival sources, Chapman traces the film''s development and production history, including its adaptation from Ian Fleming''s source novel, as well as its reception and lasting impact. Chapman also considers the film''s portrayal of gender politics, with its queer villains counterpoised with the heterosexual couple Bond and his Russian counterpart Tatiana Romanova, the context of Cold War politics, and the influence of Alfred Hitchcock’s North by Northwest (1959).

For millennia death has been celebrated in multiple ways and forms, defining funeral practices as the most central of all rites. Mortality does not seem to affect us until we are suddenly touched by it directly. Memento mori, in Latin ''remember you must die'', is not a gloomy reminder of our human destiny, but to invigorate life. This book is an offering, as well as a gentle reminder of the ephemerality of life, split between our physical, but also our digital reality.As we live in increasingly datafied societies, in which new technologies constantly reshape relationships, lifestyles and habits, a support system that could aid the re-integration of death into everyday life is absent. How do we experience grief in a digital society? And how do we reconnect with funeral practices in a rationalist, modern reality that is void of ritual? These two questions cannot be answered separately.DEATH-DESIGN-DATA investigates the experience of death and grief in the digital era - one that is saturated with information yet finds itself devoid of rituality - and how art and design could play a role in reconciling humans with death.
