They were very wise to allow us to film there.”

“I was never one for multi-cameras; my approach was always... I always considered there was only one place to be to do a shot.”

“In all my 'Bond' films, everything you see there is fantastically real.”

“When you shoot a film, it takes six months, and it's very important keep the morale of the crew up top, all the time, and keep them on their toes, and keep them enthusiastic.”
