“George Lazenby has become a polished story teller about all his Bond experiences. They are very interesting and he has become, over the years, very good at telling these stories and presenting them in both a fascinating and very humorous manner. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWe were in stitches. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe wonderful thing about seeing a film in a festival setting is that there is not an empty seat to be found, and that every chair has in it a responsive audience member that is hanging on every word and laughing out loud en mass.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGeorge, who has retired to somewhere California told one of his stories to the right ear. Someone who knew a couple of young, up and coming, very talented film makers. Who after several 3 and a half hour lunches listening to George decided they wanted to make a movie with him.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis was a wonderful screening at this years Hot Docs film festival with a wonderful Qu0026amp;A where I was able to both speak with the film makers themselves as well as George who picked up when the director called him from the stage. He shared some additional insights through the auditoriums sound system but we all would have loved to see him.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eVery good show.”
