Published: Aug. 31, 2023, 9:10 a.m.

Let me set the scene: It's 1963, the movie 'From Russia With Love' has just released and pre-production on 'Goldfinger' is already taking place. The People are clamoring for international nonces of mystery, and the great film-mills of Europe are only too happy to hard shift from the declining 'sword and sandals' genre into something that will forever be known... as Eurospy.\nIt's episode one of season 3, the much anticipated 'Season of Solidarity', where we take a look at movies not currently struck by the WGA or SAG-AFTRA and get to get back to our roots of talking about a bad spy movie from the 60s.\nOn today's docket: OSS 117 is unleashed!\xa0\n------\nTHE MOVIES ARE ON STRIKE!\nSAG-AFTRA and the WGA are both on strike for a number of reasons, from pay for streaming residuals, to the rights to own your own appearance, to the right to not have AIs trained off your work.\nSo if you've got a few spare pennies, why not chip in to help keep movies from becoming Shit Forever.https://entertainmentcommunity.org/https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/the-snacklist-support-striking-workers\nAnd if you're in the UK, the UCU could still do with some helphttps://www.ucu.org.uk/fightingfund\n\n\n------\nConsider supporting us on our reasonably-priced patreon!https://www.patreon.com/killjamesbond\n\n\n\n------\n*WEB DESIGN ALERT*\xa0\n\n\nTom Allen is a friend of the show (and the designer behind our website).
