Pierce Brosnan immortalized as James Bond outside Texas theater

Bond News - 03-12-04

Pierce Brosnan will always be seen as James Bond - for visitors to a Texas cinema at least, reports Desert Mountain Times.

In Alpine (Texas, USA), Doug Myerscough, a muralist from Denison, has transformed the front of Rangra Theater into a cinematic playground. Myerscough’s work was funded by contributions obtained locally and by the theater owner, with much of the work donated by the artist.



Depicted at street level are adventure-movie icons including Darth Vader, ET, Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones, John Wayne, James Dean and others, while portraits of Marilyn Monroe, Marlin Brando and Pierce Brosnan as James Bond peer from recesses near the top of the building. And an image of a Sul Ross graduate, the late Dan Blocker as Hoss Cartwright, holds a prominent position next to the ticket window. This celebration of movie magic commands attention from anyone passing by, leaving little doubt what takes place behind the glass entrance doors.

Thanks to `Kyvan` for the alert.
