FOR YOUR EYES ONLY, the movie, was not the story from Ian Fleming\u2019s short story with the same title.\xa0\xa0 In this episode, Dan and Tom decode the movie to see how the story came to be.
Some of the characters from the movie, and some of the plot points were adapted from Ian Fleming\u2019s 1960 short stories \u201cFor Your Eyes Only\u201d and \u201cRisico\u201d.\xa0 Plus, the locations of the 2 stories and the movie are all different. People\u2019s names have changed.\xa0 The reason that people have wanted revenge has changed.\xa0 The MacGuffin has changed.
Yet, even with all of that, the movie, FOR YOUR EYES ONLY turned into one of Roger Moore\u2019s best movies playing James Bond.
And the 1968 movie ICE STATION ZEBRA definitely influenced the final version of the movie FOR YOUR EYES ONLY.\xa0 Dan and Tom lay it out in this episode!
So, take a listen.\xa0
