0032 Interview Robert Sellers

When Harry Saltzman met Cubby Broccoli they realised they needed each other to bring James Bond to the silver screen. And so they started a business partnership, which was, in a way, doomed to fail. While Cubby was extremely devoted to Bond, Harry was always on the look-out for the next big thing. The book “When Harry Met Cubby” by Robert Sellers tells the story of the two producers, how they met, how they worked together and how it all fell apart… Don interviews Robert and they talk about what kind of men Harry and Cubby were, how their personal history helped shape the Bond film franchise and how money has a tendency to ruin pretty much everything.
