Casino Royale

My third theatrical screening. Still impressive. Expository dialogue during the poker scene is still hilarious. Martin Campbell still impresses with dramatic wide shots and long takes. And above all, it’s Eva Green as the young, in-over-her-head accountant Vesper Lynd. She’s vulnerable, but not a victim, and she’s imposing without knowing a shred of karate.
