Fleming: "The Man Who Would Be Bond" (True story of Bond creator Ian Fleming) 4Part:

Now on NETFLIX. I'm into Part 4, the Last One of the 4 Part. Enjoyed it...although the violent sex scenes in some parts (I finally skipped through) can get to be a bit much from this particular female viewer's side...it still held my interest. I wish it had gone into more depth, in a way, but it was still interesting to see this view of Ian Fleming and England's problems with France, Bombings and the build up and involvement in WWII as a SPY creating his own "Navy Seals' Force" even back then and what happened with that. It's very compelling.
