[00:00:00]The great tragedy of this Bond specifically is that he is clearly alone and broken down and truly desperate for any shred of happiness or anything. It's like so incredible to think of this is like a tragedy when you look at the other Bond movies as awesome action flicks.

[00:00:17]>> Craig's tenure as Bond is defined by tragedy. I mean Casino Royale, he loses the first woman he ever loves and trusts and then it culminates in No Time to Die with him having a family, but he's never going to be able to be with them ever again because of the circumstances of that movie. This is kind of the middle point where he loses his almost surrogate mother figure in M. The entire five movie stretch is really Bond at his most vulnerable and we just get to see a much stronger character study than any of the ones in the past have ever done.
