Harwood, Johanna Harwood

Harwood, Johanna Harwood

Irish woman Johanna Harwood is not widely-known, but she should be. She wrote the screenplays for the James Bond movies 'Dr. No' and 'From Russia With Love' including coming up with the "Goya Joke" - one of the most famous visual jokes in the whole series. Not long after, she gave it all up to go and live in Paris with a French film director, René Clémont. Not a straightforward relationship because he was already married and stayed married until his wife, Bella's death. Now in her 90s (refusing to reveal her exact age) and living in Monaco, Johanna looks back on a life almost as colourful and exciting as any Bond script! "Harwood, Johanna Harwood" is narrated by Shauna McGreevy. Produced by Shauna McGreevy & Ronan Kelly (2024)
