I would love to see a new Bond series start in the mid-1950s and work its way up to the “Swingin’ ‘60s,” as Fleming’s books did. Setting the series in that period would be a bonanza for creative writing, production design, photography, costuming, you name it. The actors would probably love playing in a “period piece” as well.

It worked for "Mad Men".

yes and get away from the formulaic BS I know i could write an outline for a Bond film with some dialogue that would fit the current mold.
