Dr. No
The first film entry into the James Bond universe, starring Sean Connery as the British Intelligence agent 007. While investigating the disappearance of a missing colleague, Bond discovers the secret island of Dr. Julius No, as well as his scheme to end the U.S. space program.
Also stars Ursula Andress, Joseph Wiseman and Bernard Lee. Though it’s the first movie in the series, Dr. No was not the first of Ian Fleming’s books (the debut novel being Casino Royale).

Empire Magazine
pressWith a debut like this, it's no wonder that it spawned one of the biggest franchises ever.
