Vitals
Roger Moore as James Bond, British secret agent
"San Monique" (actually Jamaica), Spring 1973
Film: Live and Let Die Release Date: June 27, 1973 Director: Guy Hamilton Costume Designer: Julie Harris Tailor: Cyril Castle
Background
Released 50 years ago today, Live and Let Die officially began Roger Moore's 12-year, seven-film tenure as James Bond. Eon Productions' first attempt recast Sean Connery in the iconic role resulted in the excellent On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), though some audiences—as well as George Lazenby himself—had trouble accepting the inexperienced Aussie as agent 007.
With credits like Maverick, The Saint, and The Persuaders! to his name, Roger Moore brought considerably more experience to the role when he was recruited after Connery's brief return in Diamonds are Forever (1971).
