Default Movie Trivia!

I almost put this under Small Media, but:

What is the first James Bond movie?

A hint--it's likely not the first thing you think.

Another hint--I use "move" a little loosely (e.g. under this definition, "Hardware Wars" would be a movie).

Third hint--if you haven't seen it and are a Bond fan, I recommend it at least for completeness of repertoire, but it's a pretty good movie too.

Well, officially it was Dr No in 1962, though there was an American James Bond TV movie of Casino Royale made in 1954. He was a CIA agent called Jimmy Bond. What were they thinking?

More importantly, how come there's not been a Canadien Bond?

Casino Royale is very close, but it was not the Woody Allen as Jimmy Bond one. There was an earlier one....

correction--Occam had the right one--I conflated the (first) two Casino Royales.
