Dry as ice, dripping with deadpan witticisms, only Sean Connery's Bond would
dare disparage the Beatles, that other 1964 phenomenon. No one but Connery can
believably seduce women so effortlessly, kill with almost as much ease, and
then pull another bottle of Dom Perignon '53 out of the fridge. Goldfinger contains
many of the most memorable scenes in the Bond series: gorgeous Shirley Eaton
(as Jill Masterson) coated in gold paint by evil Auric Goldfinger and deposited
in Bond's bed; silent Oddjob, flipping a razor-sharp derby like a Frisbee to
sever heads; our hero spread-eagle on a table while a laser beam moves threateningly
toward his crotch. Honor Blackman's Pussy Galore is the prototype for the series'
rash of man-hating supermodels. And Desmond Llewelyn reprises his role as Q,
giving Bond what is still his most impressive car, a snazzy little number that
fires off smoke screens, punctures the tires of vehicles on the chase, and boasts
a handy ejector seat. Goldfinger's two climaxes, inside Fort Knox and aboard
a private plane, have to be seen to be believed.
