Bond reminds me rather of Hoagy Carmichael, but there is something cold and ruthless.
Vesper Lynd in Ian Fleming's Casino Royale (Jonathan Cape, 1953).
[Bond is] certainly good-looking ... Rather like Hoagy Carmichael in a way. That black hair falling down over the right eyebrow. Much the same bones. But there was something a bit cruel in the mouth, and the eyes were cold.
Gala Brand in Ian Fleming's Moonraker (Jonathan Cape, 1955).
Hoagy Carmichael, early 1950s.
