OVER BLACK SCENE CARD
Casino Royale Makes the Table a Body Trap
The poker table works as action because it narrows the body. Money, eye contact, poison, surveillance, and professional composure all fight inside one seated arena.
Why it works
The poison beat converts a social contest into a bodily countdown without leaving the casino logic. Bond’s performance at the table and his survival protocol become the same pressure system.
