James Bond Conventional Features - 55 Years of Bond - Media Homework

missmintymoo

Hi there!

My 13 year old daughter has been set the following Media Studies homework on James Bond:

"Today's big question: What conventional features have remained the same throughout 55 years of Bond? Have any changed greatly"

Would anyone be able to help with topics of what has followed in each film and what has changed, don't need too much detail, example being Bond was a smoker until Daniel Craig took on the role.

Thanks in advance.

PS. Thanks for letting us join.
