About the Book

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 160. Not illustrated. Chapters: Shaken, Not Stirred. Excerpt: "Shaken, not stirred" is a catch phrase of Ian Fleming's fictional British Secret Service agent James Bond, and his preference for how he wished his martini prepared. The phrase first appears in the novel Diamonds Are Forever (1956), though Bond does not actually say the line until Dr. No (1958) but says it "shaken and not stirred" instead of "shaken, not stirred." It was first uttered in the films by Sean Connery in Goldfinger in 1964 (though the villain Dr. Julius No offers this drink and utters those words in the first film, Dr. No, in 1962). It was used in numerous Bond films thereafter with the notable exceptions of You Only Live Twice, in which the drink is offered stirred, not shaken (Bond, ever the gentleman and not wanting to cause his polite host embarrassment brushes it off, telling his host it's perfect), and Casino Royale, in which, asked if he wants his martini shaken or stirred, Bond snaps, "Does it look like I give a damn?" This phrase has become a recognizable catch phrase in western popular culture, and has appeared in any number of films, television programs and video games for its cliche value. In Tom Clancy's novel Without Remorse, when ex-Navy Seal John Clark was asked his opinion of CIA operatives he worked with in theVietnam War, he replied "A couple were all right but most of them spent their time upstairs mixing martinis, shaken, not stirred" {page 205]. Roger Moore used the phrase in one episode of The Saint, eight years before he played James Bond himself. Ironically, while playing Bond, Moore never ordered a martini, although he received one in The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker and Octopussy. The American Film Institute honored Goldfinger and the phrase on 21 July 2005 by ranking it #90 on a list of best movie quotes in the past 100 years of ...
