rif. 74291N.p. London: Elstree Studios 1960. Literary and cinematic critique Elstree Studios' unfavourable report of Ian Fleming's For Your Eyes Only written five days prior to publication from page proofs submitted by Fleming's agents Pearn Pollinger & Higham. 8pp. typed report on rectos only reader's delivery stamp to first page dated 15 December 1955. Perforations down left edge from office binding. Well preserved. The fourth James Bond novel Diamonds Are Forever was published on 26 March 1956. Elstree's reader report notes that Fleming's literary agents Pearn Pollinger and Higham Ltd. submitted page proofs of the novel to the studio on 15 December 1955. The Summary begins favourably 'Another fast-moving exciting thriller starring Ian Fleming's hero James Bond.' but goes on to comment that the book 'contains a less arresting plot than Moonraker or Casino Royale'. The outline of the plot in the Story section runs to six and a half pages - after which the reader's Comment is less than positive: 'Ian Fleming has been aptly described as "Peter Cheyney for the carriage trade" and it would be difficult to find a better summing up. He writes better than the majority of thriller-writers but his smooth style occasionally trips up with the over-unusual simile designed to arrest and startle the reader. Also in order to tickle jaded palates he goes all out for the unusual locale and in this book jumps from the Saratoga race-track to a frontier ghost town just outside Las Vegas laying on too much local colour altogether. One cannot overlook him for he is rapidly becoming one of the most popular thriller writers of his day. But this book while it could make a film does not immediately suggest itself for screen adaptation. There is nothing sufficiently startling or unusual in the story to lift it above the 'B' class. Not recommended.' According to its first page this report was specifically compiled for Warner Bros. who had acquired a controlling interest in Elstree in the 1940s. N.p.
