Craig Defended the Title ’Quantum of Solace’

The new James Bond film has been named and is reportedly action-packed, but entertainment journalists are questioning the choice of title, asking whether it is in fact the ’worst Bond name ever’.

“At the end of the last movie his heart’s been broken and he doesn’t have that quantum of solace, he doesn’t have that … closure on what happened in his life and he needs to find out,” Craig said.

“What is great about it is it also applies to something very important in the plot,” he said during a break from filming.
