JAMES BOND - CRAIG OFFERED PIRATE COPY OF HIS OWN FILM

CRAIG OFFERED PIRATE COPY OF HIS OWN FILM

JAMES BOND star DANIEL CRAIG was stunned when he arrived in Beijing yesterday (29JAN07) for the Chinese premiere of CASINO ROYALE, and was offered a pirate copy of the film. Craig was approached by a bootleg DVD seller who offered him a copy for just $1.50 (GBP.75p), not recognising him as the star of the film. The actor says, "Someone tried to sell me a copy last night. "I was wearing a hat and glasses so they didn't recognise me. It saddens me. "Going to the cinema is a great experience. You're missing out by watching a bad copy of a DVD. "As far as I'm concerned cinema is a collective experience and you get 50 per cent more by going to the cinema."
