Casino Royale (1967) with spy memorabilia collector Derek Norman and Guy Walker
from Don't Call Us Shirley! A Parody Movie Podcast · host Film Stories
Welcome to DON'T CALL US SHIRLEY! A PARODY MOVIE PODCAST, proudly sponsored this time by Not This One, because Latham didn't bother getting a sponsor this week. Hosted by A. J. Black and Matt Latham, Don't Call Us Shirley! explores the breadth of cinematic parody and pastiche across the decades, tackling the great, good and obscure along the way. In this episode, Tony chooses one of the most unusual spoofs in cinema history, the 1967 'adaptation' of Ian Fleming's Casino Royale. Joined by spy memorabilia collector Derek Norman (you know, from YouTube) and Britcom Goes to the Movies co-host Guy Walker, they chat this deeply strange take on the legend of James Bond, with numerous actors playing the role, psychedlic 60s vignettes, five directors, what feels like five different plots, and off screen shenanigans far more interesting than anything in the film itself. But is this an underrated curio? How exactly does it take off 007? And will we be left shaken and stirred (or maybe just undercooked)? Find out! Host / Editor A. J.
