Publisher's summary

To tie in with the release of his first James Bond film, Live and Let Die, Roger Moore agreed to keep a day-by-day diary throughout the film's production which was published just ahead of the premiere in July 1973. From the previous October, when he was unveiled as the new 007, through to his first scenes on location in New Orleans and his final shot in New York, Moore describes his whirlwind journey as cinema's most famous secret agent. Taking in the sights of Jamaica before returning to Pinewood Studios, Moore's razor wit and unique brand of humor is ever present. With tales from every location, including his encounters with his costars and key crew members, Moore offers the listener an unusually candid, amusing, and hugely insightful behind-the-scenes look into the world's most successful film franchise. Never before, and never since, has a 007 himself written such a book, and this new edition will introduce the next generation of Bond fans to Roger Moore's extraordinary legacy.

For Any 007 Fan!

If you’re a fan of the James Bond movies, and look no further. With the movie Livin let die being Roger Moore’s first outing as James Bond this is a great behind-the-scenes look of the film. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys the Bond movies or is the cinema aficionado!

Fascinating for Bond fans

Roger has a great sense of humor. Laughed out loud many times. It's a great listen IF you have seen and love the movie. My only complaint is the seemingly many dozens of times Roger felt the need to say which restaurants he ate at and whom with. Overall, I'm very happy with the interesting insights behind the scenes. One thing was very clear at the end: Roger did not sweat taking over the role from Sean. Bond was a job, and Roger felt no pressure.

meh

I listened to this book because I was a theatre manager when this movie was released in the Summer of 1973 and I was feeling nostalgic.

I found it was tedious and repetitive. The only interesting bits were some of the technical details of how they put together the action shots in the film.
