Casino Royale, although a send-up, was actually an 'official' Bond film as Ian Fleming had already sold the screen rights to the book before he signed the deal with Salzman and Broccoli for the other stories. Unable to interest them in a partnership, American producer Charles K. Feldman decided to turn it into a spoof on the Bond films where various actors play the part of Bond during the many, almost episodic, skits and sequences by five different directors in a very confused storyline bearing little relation to Fleming's original book.

James Bond, a 'retired' secret agent, is called back to service by the death of "M" and the imminent collapse of civilization hastened along by his old adversaries S.M.E.R.S.H.. They try to compromise him with seductive enemy agents but he manages to remain true to his task. Every agent is renamed James Bond 007 in order to confuse the enemy, including Woody Allen who plays Little Jimmy Bond. Not a bad film in many ways but definitely not 'classic' Bond, which probably contributed most to its being hideously unsuccessful at the box office despite an incredible gallery of stars in the cast.
