Abstract

Sex, violence and women are cornerstones of James Bond films. The Bond girl villain encapsulates all these elements but is subject to changing depictions to suit the requirements of Bond's character. With reference to film noir femmes fatales, Vesper Lynd is connected to the successful narrative restarting of the franchise.
