The Macallan James Bond 60th Anniversary Decade II 43.7 abv NV

The 1970s saw the rise of Roger Moore’s Bond. He brought different, mischievous facets and humour to the character, cheering up a somewhat dire decade. A man for the times, he overcame filmic adversaries with elegant aplomb. While the business of making movies remained as serious as whisky distilling, he reminded us that life is about enjoyment of the finer, better still the finest, of all that it offers. The packaging design includes sketches and storyboards from The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), Stromborg’s Atlantis marine research lab, and various space station concepts from Moonraker (1979)

Les années 1970 ont vu l'essor du James Bond de Roger Moore. Il a apporté au personnage des facettes différentes et espiègles mais aussi de l'humour, égayant une décennie quelque peu désastreuse. Homme de son temps, il a vaincu les adversaires cinématographiques avec un aplomb élégant. Tandis que le métier de réalisateur de films resté aussi sérieux que la distillation du whisky, il nous a rappelé que la vie consiste à profiter du meilleur, mieux encore du meilleur, de tout ce qu'elle offre. La conception de l'emballage comprend des croquis et des storyboards de L'Espion qui m'aimait (1977), l'Atlantide marine de Stromborg, laboratoire de recherche et divers concepts de station spatiale de Moonraker (1979)
