A medium dry martini, lemon peel, shaken, not stirred

The first James Bond film, directed by Terence Young in 1962, starring Sean Connery as the agent 007, Ursula Andress as the Bond girl Honey Ryder, Bernard Lee as Bond's superior M (the head of MI6), Desmond Llewelyn as Boothroyd or 'Q' (the head of Q division)Lois Maxwell as Miss Moneypenny (MI6 secretary) and Joseph Wiseman as Dr. No, the main antagonist. James Bond investigates the death of fellow agent and his secretary in Jamaica, leading him to hunt down a crimininal scientist from the organization SPECTRE (SPecial Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge, and Extortion) who wants to disrupt American space launch. The movie has stood remarkably well the test of time, it's no surprise that it's a little naive, but in the end it only makes it better.
