Pinewood Studios have renamed their East Side Complex building in honour of legendary production designer Peter Lamont. The tribute was hosted by the British Film Designers’ Guild and Pinewood Studios. It was attended by family, friends and colleagues from the industry including producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli.
Peter Lamont worked on 18 James Bond films starting with
Goldfinger (1964) and working on all but one of the films until
Casino Royale (2006).
Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) was the only James Bond film that Lamont was unable to work on over 41 years due to his commitment to
Titanic (1997).
During his long career, Peter was nominated for three Academy Awards for his work on
Fiddler On The Roof (1971),
The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) och
Aliens (1986), all were shot at Pinewood. His fourth nomination, for
Titanic, won him the Oscar.
