Goldfinger.
more James Bond.
way more Helter Skelter.

September 18, 1964 - 2024: 60 years of: Goldfinger.

The ultimate 24K classic.

Movie number three is were the now archetypal Bond is set in stone. Our loyal Royal Navy Commander lands in the Red, White & Blue ...and literally breaks the bank. Time for: Operation Grand Slam.

Auric Goldfinger likes gold and owns alot of it. When James Bond inquires on his businesses, he's met with courtesy and opposition. Behind his solid facade, Goldfinger doesn't want to capture America's gold, but intend to eliminate it. Making his current fortune the biggest asset in the world global finance. The target is clear, eradicate the US Bullion Depository: Fort Knox.

After 1963's From Russia With Love and before 1965's Thunderball, Goldfinger shines with pride, as the first of many colossal operations, led by an over-confided narcissic nefarious billionaire.

"Shocking." - James

And more immortal 007-signatures are hatched: the fan-favorite silver Aston Martin DB5 presented in it's full glory by fan-favorite super-tech weapon-specialist Q, the fan-favorite super-blonde with an attitude Pussy Galore ...and real-life Korean muscle man turned menacing mute man: Oddjob.

"No Mister Bond, I expect you to die !" - Auric Goldfinger
