SPECTRE VOICEOVER
-
- Philosophy
Ian Fleming introduced the organization SPECTRE into the world of James Bond late in his game. He was preparing the crossover of his Cold War espionage fiction from literature into film, and the medium of projection became the author’s outside chance for a final reckoning with his opportunism. SPECTRE is a true underworld in which all the figures from the Cold War’s recent past – World War Two – are back, surprise attack, upsetting the deep freeze opposition that denied both the perpetrators and the victims the love that was once live. Fleming reverses the denial of the recent past and awards Bond in the course of the three SPECTRE novels the adult profile of the mourner.
