Bond Girls are Forever by Maryam D'abo
How has the iconic status of the Bond girl endured for so long? Bond Women will explore how the archetype of the `Bond girl’ has evolved over the last forty years and reveals how she became and continues to be one of the strongest and most resilient symbols of 20th century pop culture. Maryam d’Abo will describe how Bond girls have reflected and defined the changing image of women in the real world. Some of the most striking and memorable of the actresses who took on the Bond challenge – from Ursula Andress to Judi Dench - will also reveal for the first time the true stories behind the role that changed their lives. With archive images of forty years of the Bond girl phenomenon and with contributions from the women behind the Bond girls themselves, Bond Girls are Forever is a beautifully produced tribute to a cultural icon that is both rebel and role model.
Maryam D'Abo starred in The Living Daylights with Timothy Dalton in 1987 and in 2002 produced the international documentary on the Bond Girl phenomenon entitled Bond Girls Are Forever. She lives in London. John Cork has co-written the bestselling James Bond: The Legacy, a tribute to forty years of Bond films. In his career he has conducted over one hundred and fifty interviews with the creative talents behind the 007 films and produced, wrote and directed thirty documentaries for MGM's releases of the James Bond films on DVD, including biographies of Ian Fleming, Cubby Broccoli and Harry Saltzman.
