Product Description:


One of the most recognizable big-screen stars of the past half-century, Sir Roger Moore played the role of James Bond longer than any other actor. Beginning with the classic Live and Let Die, running through Moonraker and A View to a Kill, Moore brought his finely honed wit and wry charm to one of Hollywood's most beloved and long-lasting characters. Still, James Bond was only one in a lifetime of roles stretching back to Hollywood's studio era, and encompassing stardom in theater and television on both sides of the Atlantic. From The Saint to Maverick, Warner Brothers to MGM, Hollywood to London to extreme locations the world over, Roger Moore's story is one of the last of the classic Hollywood lives as yet untold.



Until now. From the dying days of the studio system and the birth of television, to the quips of Noël Coward and David Niven, to the bedroom scenes and outtakes from the Bond movies, Moore has seen and heard it all. Nothing is left out—especially the naughty bits. The "special effects" by which James Bond unzipped a dress with a magnet; the spectacular risks in The Spy Who Loved Me's opening scene; and Moore's preparation for facing down villains (he would imagine they all have halitosis): the stories in My Word is My Bond are priceless.



Throughout his career, Moore hobnobbed with the glamorous and powerful, counting Elizabeth Taylor, Jane Seymour, and Cary Grant among his contemporaries and friends. Included are stories of a foul-mouthed Milton Berle, a surly Richard Burton, and a kindhearted Richard Kiel, infamous as Bond enemy Jaws.



As much as it is Moore's own exceptional story, My Word is My Bond is a treasure trove of Hollywood history.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Old Jokes but interesting gossip
Quite a good read for film buffs. But the recycled old jokes, dear oh dear and clearly a very vain guy. He's a lovable character in the biz though and although has made many turkeys (poor chap cannot act bless him!) its good for Bond history etc.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better than I thought!
This is indeed a very good book. I was not sure what to expect but I find that it is hard to put down. Roger Moore certainly makes it very interesting and does not allow the reader (or at least me that is!) to get bored. I was a fan when I lived in the UK and used to watch The Saint as a kid and have enjoyed seeing them all again on BBC America. He certainly is not the best actor in the world but he is interesting. Worth a read in my opinion.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Autobiography of a Devilish Saint
Impute: Fall to Sin

Unlike many critics and people, I loved Roger Moore's James Bond. This is a suave, British, tongue in character, so much more like The Saint than the violent Connery portrayal. (Once Timothy Dalton took over, good bye to Bond as depicted by Ian Fleming.) The current one, as NY Times critic described him, is sad. Yes, I feel sad, for the early Bond books were great. When Roger stepped in Live and Let Die (the second Bond), the series got a new lease of life. Those ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A MUST for Moore Maniacs
I'm just about at the halfway point, and thought I'd be bored until the Bond chapters came. NOPE---it's great from the get go, and who knew Moore was this funny? Very insightful and so far I've learned more about one of my favorite actors than I had expected to considering the 007-centered title.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Roger Moore revealed!
My first Bond film experience was back in 1973 with the release of Live and Let Die; therefore, for me Roger Moore is Bond... James Bond.

We come from Cuba and I left the Island alone, still a child in 1968 when I traveled to the USA through Mexico. I arrived in the US in 1969 so by 1973 I spoke English but did not fully comprehend all the expressions of Shakespeare's language. Coming from Cuba, I had seen action films from France; "Fantomas" where a criminal mastermind with a thousand ... Read More
