26 LAUGH ALL YOU WANT, BUT
DON’T CALL IT OSCAR-WORTHY
Christopher Guest and Eugene Levy
discuss For Your Consideration,
their new film about laughably
unfounded Oscar buzz on the set of
a terrible movie. But, all laughing
aside, the co-writers say the most
important thing for the success of
this comedy is that you want to
cry for their characters

COVER STORY
30 BACK TO BOND BASICS
Let’s face it, Bond movies were
starting to get lost in over-the-top
storylines and far-fetched gadgetry.
Thankfully Casino Royale, starring
brand-new Bond Daniel Craig,
returns to 007’s roots using
Ian Fleming’s very first book about
the superspy as source material
