There was also one other short story collection: _For_Your_Eyes_Only_.
I don't know the date of the book or film.  The movie used about 4 scenes
from different stories at different points and dreamt up a plot to go
around them.  (Which was ok, since the original stories weren't connected.)
Overall, I thought the book was good, but not great.
