“GoldenEye”: Tv interview with Pierce Brosnan from “Bogart” (1996)

In this excerpt from the film programme "Bogart" shown on DR (Danish national television) in January 1996, the show's host Ole Michelsen reviews the latest James Bond 007 film "GoldenEye" in Danish and interviews Pierce Brosnan who visited Hotel d'Angleterre in Copenhagen on his promotional tour. The interview clip is in English with Danish subtitles and shows a somewhat defensive Brosnan countering a slightly condescending question from Michelsen regarding the "shallowness" of the Bond character.

Please note that the clip is transferred from a VHS recording of the original broadcast and that this edit does not include the clip from the opening scene of "GoldenEye" which was part of the original broadcast.

Extra:

On page 167 of Ole Michelsen's book "Film skal ses i biografen" [Movies should be seen at the cinema], published by Aschehoug in 1997, he gave yet another reason for Pierce Brosnan's grumpy appearence in the interview clip:

"I accidentally insulted him when he told me he was about to do a new version of Robinson Crusoe. I responded: Which part will you be playing?"

“GoldenEye”: Video report from the Danish gala premiere (TV 2 1996)

The 24 January 1996 edition of the youth programme SuperPuls on Danish network TV 2 covered the Danish gala premiere of "GoldenEye" which took place at Copenhagen's Imperial Cinema on January 11.

The video is mostly in Danish although host Tina Bilsbo is seen interviewing Pierce Brosnan (James Bond 007) on the red carpet. The clip also features interview snippets with Brosnan, composer Eric Serra and singer Tina Turner from the "GoldenEye" EPK (Electronic Press Kit). These are in English with Danish subtitles.

The clip is sourced from a VHS taping which explains the poor image quality.

“Up and coming” (1972): The “Bond Street” dance

VIDEO

 
In the little-known Danish comedy "Nu går den på Dagmar" (international title: "Up and Coming") from 1972, two young acting students (played by Ulla Gottlieb and Finn Storgaard) do a fairly elaborate choreography to Burt Bacharach's own recording of "Bond Street".

"Bond Street", issued on the Bacharach LP "Reach Out" (1967), is based on the composer's cue "Home, James, don't spare the horses" written for the soundtrack of Columbia's "Casino Royale".

The dancing in "Nu går den på Dagmar" was choreographed by American dancer Gene Nettles who at this time was living in Denmark. Actor Finn Storgaard reveals to Bond•O•Rama.dk that the scene was hell to do because of the heat.

"We shot in the summer in a real studio apartment in Copenhagen. It was 30 degrees Celcius outside, but at least 40 degrees in the flat after the crew put up light boxes in all of the windows," Finn Storgaard recalls.

"Nu går den på Dagmar" was released in Danish cinemas on October 23, 1972. This excerpt is from a VHS issued by the company Kavan (the film has to date not been released on DVD).
