The Forgotten Bond : The CBS production of Casino Royale (1954)
In 1954, the US television network CBS broadcast a live studio dramatization
of Casino Royale as an instalment of its drama anthology
series Climax! Casino Royale was long thought to be “lost” and is still
regarded as something of a curio item in the history of James Bond
adaptations for the screen. This chapter offers a critical reassessment of
the 1954 CBS production of Casino Royale by placing it in the institutional
and aesthetic contexts of American television drama in the 1950s. In
doing so, it argues that the Americanization of James Bond (played
by American actor Barry Nelson) may be seen as part of a strategy of
the cultural repositioning of the James Bond character for American
consumption.
