"Do you expect me to talk?"
"No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!"
― James Bond and Auric Goldfinger
is the third film in the James Bond series and also the third to star Sean Connery as the MI6 agent James Bond. The main cast was rounded out by Gert Fröbe and Honor Blackman. The film was produced by Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman, and was the first of four Bond films directed by Guy Hamilton.
After a pre-titles "mini-adventure" in which James Bond destroys the base of Mexican drug lord Mr. Ramirez, romances with belly dancer Bonita, and defeats a thug in a bathroom brawl, the film proper begins in Miami with Bond foiling the plan of Auric Goldfinger to cheat at gin, when he chats up the girl, Jill Masterson, who is watching the card game through a telescope helping him cheat. Bond and Jill have sex and afterwards, as Bond goes into the kitchen to get some fresh champagne, he is knocked unconscious by Goldfinger's henchman, Oddjob. When Bond comes to, he discovers that Jill has been covered with gold paint and she is dead. Later in London, Bond is told to investigate Goldfinger to discover his means of shipping gold internationally as Goldfinger is under suspicion of illegally smuggling his gold by Colonel Smithers who is in charge of the Bank of England. Bond goes to a golf course where he plays a round of golf with Goldfinger with caddie Hawker luring him with the prospect of getting a German gold bar from World War II era that Smithers supplied him with. He foils Goldfinger's cheating (although by switching the ball, he was cheating himself), and Goldfinger has to pay Bond. Oddjob at this point shows his ability to throw his hat which cuts the head off a stone statue, then he crushes a golf ball in the palm of his hand.
Bond installs a homing device on Goldfinger's car, and follows him to Switzerland. While there he meets the sister of Jill, Tilly, who tries to shoot Goldfinger with a sniper rifle although she is 'a lousy shot'. Bond is chased around Goldfinger's factory by cars full of Asian men, and Bond using gadgets in his car to lose them, including the famous scene of the passenger side ejector seat, although he is finally brought to a stop by Oddjob's car with its bright yellow beams, and Bond crashes into a brick wall, hits his head and Bond faints. With Bond unconscious, Tilly tries to escape, and Oddjob kills her with the hat he throws at her.
Bond bluffs his way out of being killed by the Industrial Laser by pretending to know what 'Operation Grandslam' is that he overheard. He is saved from being lasered, but is shot in the chest by a stun gun, causing Bond to faint. Bond wakes up on Goldfinger's plane, where Pussy Galore introduces herself. Bond activates a homing device in the heel of his shoe. They are flying to Kentucky, where Bond is taken to Goldfinger's ranch where he races horses. While there, Bond sees the plan of Goldfinger to attack Fort Knox, tries to drop a note off to the CIA by putting it in the pocket of one of the mob members who was going to help Goldfinger, although he ended up being shot by Oddjob and crushed when his car was crushed into a cube. Bond managed to convince Pussy Galore to change the Nerve Gas canisters in the planes about to attack Fort Knox with dummies, so that it has no effect on the soldiers there. In addition, the army are warned about the attack by Pussy, although this is not revealed until after Goldfinger has broken into the building, where they were all playing dead. But Goldfinger escapes because he is wearing a US uniform disguise under his coat.
Bond is chained to the small Atomic Bomb, and is able to free himself when Oddjob throws a guard down several stories next to Bond, and Bond retrieves the key. Bond and Oddjob then battle it out, Bond throws his hat at Oddjob which misses but get stuck in some metal bars. Bond then electrocutes him with a live wire that had been previously severed. Bond prepares to defuse the bomb, and just before he is about to pull some wires, the bomb defuser has arrived, and turns the right switch, disarming the bomb with the clock reading '007' seconds remaining.

With the court case between Kevin McClory and Fleming surrounding Thunderball still in the High Courts, producers Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman turned to Goldfinger as the third Bond film. Goldfinger had what was then considered a large budget of $3 million ($22,480,687 in 2012 dollars), the equivalent of the budgets of Dr. No and From Russia with Love combined, and was the first James Bond film classified as a box-office blockbuster. Goldfinger was chosen with the American cinema market in mind, as the previous films had concentrated on the Caribbean and Europe.
Terence Young, who directed the previous two films, chose to film The Amorous Adventures of Moll Flanders instead, after a pay dispute that saw him denied a percentage of the film’s profits. Broccoli and Saltzman turned instead to Guy Hamilton to direct; Hamilton, who had turned down directing Dr. No, felt that he needed to make Bond less of a "superman" by making the villains seem more powerful. Hamilton knew Fleming, as both were involved during intelligence matters in the Royal Navy during World War II. Goldfinger saw the return of two crew members who were not involved with From Russia with Love: stunt coordinator Bob Simmons and production designer Ken Adam. Both played crucial roles in the development of Goldfinger, with Simmons choreographing the fight sequence between Bond and Oddjob in the vault of Fort Knox, which was not just seen as one of the best Bond fights, but also "must stand as one of the great cinematic combats" whilst Adam's efforts on Goldfinger were "luxuriantly baroque" and have resulted in the film being called "one of his finest pieces of work."
•Reference is made to Bond having an Attaché Case that is damaged (presumed destroyed) when examined by Goldfinger's personnel. This may be a reference to the briefcase introduced in From Russia with Love, or it could have been another piece of luggage that had been rigged to self-destruct when tampered with.

Although James Bond films are not known for their technical accuracy, but rather for outlandishly plausible action, one incident in this film bears mentioning. In one scene, the villain's girlfriend, Jill Masterson, is murdered by "skin suffocation." She was painted with gold paint and died, because her skin was unable to breathe. According to urban legend, the concept was based on the death of Swiss fashion model who painted herself and asphyxiated. Though this is a plausible explanation for this unusual method of killing, it has been argued whether or not it is possible. Humans, being mammals, achieve respiration via their mouths and nostrils to fill their lungs with air. The only animals that breathe through their skin are insects and worms. In fact, were it true that people breathe, in auxiliary fashion, through their skin, it would, therefore, be impossible for people to engage in extended bathing, mud baths, scuba diving and, indeed, body painting - activities requiring extended covering of the skin. If one did try murder via gilding, the victim would die of heat stroke, but only after a long period and not in the manner shown in the movie. The gold paint would clog the pores and prevent perspiration, rendering the body unable to properly regulate its temperature. Dying in this fashion, however, would take several days and is a very inefficient manner of killing. The Discovery Channel series, MythBusters has twice attempted to prove or disprove whether skin suffocation due to paint was possible. In both experiments one of the hosts of the series was covered head-to-toe in gold paint. The first experiment was called off when the subject began experiencing breathing and blood pressure problems. In a follow-up experiment, a different subject was covered but this time showed no ill effects. Shirley Eaton herself appeared on one of the MythBusters installments, in the process debunking a related myth that she had died during the filming of Goldfinger of skin suffocation from being painted gold for the scene.
Other Trivia
•The villain's name was borrowed from the architect Ernö Goldfinger, and his character bears some resemblance. Ernö Goldfinger consulted his lawyers when the book was published, prompting Fleming to suggest renaming the character "Goldprick", but eventually settled out of court in return for his costs, six copies of the book, and an agreement that the characters' first name Auric would always be used. •The film's opening teaser sequence is based on the novel's opening where Bond is in the Miami Airport lounge thinking about the recent killing of a drug smuggler. •The character "Pussy Galore" was named after Ian Fleming's pet octopus. •This is the first James Bond film where the pre-title sequence has a storyline unrelated to the film's main plot and never being referred later afterwards. The same thing would occur later in For Your Eyes Only and Octopussy. •Concerned about censors, the film's producers thought about changing Pussy Galore's name to "Kitty Galore". They kept the original name when British newspapers began to refer to Honor Blackman as "Pussy" in the lead up to production. •First of five James Bond films that win an Academy Award. It won for Best Sound Editing. •Ian Fleming also contributed to the original draft screenplay for The Man from U.N.C.L.E. television series, in which one of the heroes was named "Napoleon Solo". That name originally came from the novel: Napoleon Solo is one of the crime bosses Goldfinger invites to participate in his scheme to steal the gold from Fort Knox, however, the character appearing in the film is a gangster referred to only as "Mr. Solo" (coincidentally a working title for The Man from U.N.C.L.E.), he exits the story due to "a pressing engagement." •First James Bond film to show Bond wearing dinner suit twice in separate occasions, with different colors of jacket in each moments. This would be repeated in Diamonds Are Forever (where he wears, in fact, three different colors of dinner suits), Octopussy and A View to a Kill. •Ford supplied the Lincoln Continental which is unceremoniously crushed in a junkyard compactor (causing much anger among American audiences) in return for the all-new Ford Mustang being showcased in the Swiss mountain driving sequence. •During a test screening of the car crusher scene, the projectionist stopped showing the footage and angrily confronted director Guy Hamilton over the destruction of the Lincoln Continental - at the time an expensive and desirable vehicle in the United States. •In the end sequence, when the atomic bomb is defused, the original ending countdown shown was "003" seconds remaining to detonation. When the film was released in the U.S., the producers changed it to 007 seconds, but the dialogue line remained: "Three more ticks and Mr. Goldfinger would have hit the jackpot". •For an unknown reason Jill and Tilly's surname was changed from Masterton to Masterson for the film. •First James Bond film to refer the President of the United States and to show American mafiosi. •The gold-painted girl in the opening credits is actually Margaret Nolan who also plays Bond's Miami masseuse, Dink. •Sean Connery never traveled to the United States to film this movie. Every scene where Bond is in America was shot at Pinewood Studios in London. •For security reasons, the filmmakers were not allowed to film inside Fort Knox. All sets for the interior of Fort Knox were designed and built from scratch. •The 3D map Goldfinger used during his mission briefing is now on display at Fort Knox. •Bond is not a fan of those other British 1960s icons The Beatles. He tells Jill Masterson that they should not be listened to without earmuffs. Richard Vernon, who played Colonel Smithers in Goldfinger, also appeared in The Beatles' first film A Hard Day's Night, as a train passenger who is visibly irritated with the band's mischievous attitudes. Margaret Nolan, the actress of Dink the Miami Hotel masseuse in Goldfinger who also appeared in the opening credits as the "golden girl", made an appearance as well in A Hard Day's Night as a casino regular, briefly escorted Paul McCartney's grandfather. Coincidentally, The Beatles' first record "Love Me Do" and James Bond cinematic debut Dr. No were released on the same date: October 5, 1962. •Script co-writer Paul Dehn would later be hired to write most of the entries in the Planet of the Apes film franchise, in part due to his work on Goldfinger. •Although the car crushing sequence was filmed in a junkyard in Miami, the scene where Oddjob returns with the cubed remains of the Lincoln Continental were shot at Pinewood. The production team struggled to locate a scrapyard in the UK that owned a similar baling press which could produce a suitable stand-in prop, as such machines were still relatively rare outside the USA. Eventually one was found. •Scenes from the film are shown during the opening credits sequence, although footage from the helicopter chase in From Russia with Love is also featured. •The film was temporarily banned in Israel due to Gert Fröbe's connections with the Nazi Party. The ban, however, was lifted many years later when a Jewish family publicly thanked Fröbe for protecting them from persecution during World War II. •Gert Fröbe was chosen for the villain's role because producers Saltzman and Broccoli had happened to see his performance in a German thriller named 'Es geschah am hellichten Tag' ('It happened in broad daylight', 1958), which is based on the story Das Versprechen (literally The Pledge) by Friedrich Dürrenmatt. In that movie, Fröbe performed the role of a psychopathic serial killer named Schrott, who lets out his frustrations about his overly dominating wife on helpless children. •The iconic slow aerial shot that follows the opening credits is that of the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach, which still stands. The big band piece accompanying that is John Barry's "Into Miami." •For many years, ABC's broadcasts of Goldfinger in the United States omitted the film's pre-credits sequence, going straight from the gunbarrel to the opening credits. •In addition to the skin suffocation implausibility, another debatable issue involves Goldfinger's plan to render the Fort Knox gold supply radioactive for nearly 60 years by detonating a small but dirty nuclear bomb inside the facility. Even a small nuclear device, however, would have been more likely to physically destroy the gold rather than simply irradiate it (this being ironically a better outcome for Goldfinger's desire to corner the gold market). •This was one of if not the first major films to reference the concept of a "dirty bomb" - a low-yield nuclear device designed to spread radioactive material. •Assuming Goldfinger's calculations were correct and the gold wasn't vaporized by the explosion outright, in theory the gold at Fort Knox would have become accessible again in 2022.
