License to Kill (1989)
Timothy Dalton steps into the role of James Bond in the first film to try to ‘ground’ the story in somewhat more topical, post-Cold War scenarios. No volcano-dwelling supervillain here, rather a Columbian drug cartel headed by Robert Davi. A shockingly young Benicio del Toro provides the role of the Heavy. Find where to watch here.
Our next topic will be the first season of The Recruit (2022). Dark comedy about a CIA lawyer who gets in way over his head in a CIA that is portrayed as being more obsessed with plausible deniability than operational effectiveness. Find where to watch here.
