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 device, 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 '' seconds remaining.
Bond then flies off to meet the President, but he finds that Goldfinger has hijacked the plane and is planning to fly to Cuba. After a struggle, Goldfinger fires his gun, breaking the window, and he is sucked out of the plane. Bond quips that he is flying with his golden harp. The plane goes down, but Bond and Pussy escape on parachutes. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman turned to Goldfinger as the third Bond film.
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. 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.
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.
Richard Maibaum, who wrote the previous films, returned to adapt the seventh James Bond novel. Maibaum fixed the novel's heavily criticized plot hole, where Goldfinger actually attempts to empty Fort Knox. In the film, Bond notes it would take twelve days for Goldfinger to steal the gold, before the villain reveals he actually intends to irradiate it with the then topical concept of a Red Chinese atomic bomb.
However, Harry Saltzman disliked the first draft, and brought in Paul Dehn to revise it. Hamilton said Dehn "brought out the British side of things".
Connery disliked his draft, so Maibaum returned. Dehn also suggested the pre-credit sequence to be an action scene with no relevance to the actual plot.
Wolf Mankowitz, an un-credited screenwriter on Dr. No , suggested the scene where Oddjob puts his car into a car crusher to dispose of a dead body. Because of the quality of work of Maibaum and Dehn, the script and outline for Goldfinger became the blueprint for future Bond films. Principal photography on Goldfinger commenced on 20 January in Miami, Florida , at the Fontainebleau Hotel ; the crew was small, consisting only of Hamilton, Broccoli, Adam, and cinematographer Ted Moore.
Miami also served as location to the scenes involving Felix's pursuit of Oddjob. After five days in Florida, production moved to England. The primary location was Pinewood Studios , home to among other sets, a recreation of the Fontainebleau, the South American city of the pre-title sequence, and both Goldfinger's estate and factory.
London Southend Airport was used for the scene where Goldfinger flies to Switzerland. Ian Fleming visited the set of Goldfinger in April ; he died a few months later in August , shortly before the film's release. The second unit filmed in Kentucky, and these shots were edited into scenes filmed at Pinewood.
Principal photography then moved to Switzerland , with the car chase being filmed at the small curves roads near Realp, the exterior of the Pilatus Aircraft factory in Stans serving as Goldfinger's factory, and Tilly Masterson's attempt to snipe Goldfinger being shot in the Furka pass.
Filming wrapped on 11 July at Andermatt, after nineteen weeks of shooting. Just three weeks prior to the film's release, Hamilton and a small team, which included Broccoli's stepson and future producer Michael G.
Wilson as assistant director, went for last minute shoots in Kentucky. Extra people were hired for post-production issues such as dubbing so the film could be finished in time. Broccoli earned permission to film in the Fort Knox area with the help of his friend, Lt. Colonel Charles Russhon. To shoot Pussy Galore's Flying Circus gassing the soldiers, the pilots were only allowed to fly above feet. Hamilton recalled this was "hopeless", and they flew at about feet, "and the military went absolutely ape".
The movie released in and featured Sean Connery in the lead role of James Bond. The spy film is the third instalment in the James Bond series.
The movie is based on the novel by the same name by Ian Fleming. The plot of the film revolved around James Bond on his quest to investigate gold smuggling by gold magnate Auric Goldfinger. Goldfinger movie review was mostly positive and the movie was also a blockbuster. For all the people who are thinking about the Goldfinger shooting locations, here is everything you need to know about it.
According to a report by movie-loations. Stears and his team used air guns to create the machine gun effect on the front of the vehicle. For the oil slick effect in the back, the team installed an actual hose connected to a tank in the trunk, which had to be swapped out for shots in which the retractable bulletproof shield was used, because there wasn't enough space for both.
Even Hamilton got in on the action, coming up with the idea of the rotating license plate after he found himself plagued by too many parking tickets in London. There were even features designed that audiences never saw, including overrider rods on the front bumper for ramming other vehicles.
Sadly, though it's one of the most memorable moments in the entire film, the car's legendary ejector seat was not actually a working model. To achieve the effect, Stears used a dummy and compressed air, and careful editing did the rest. Though the scenes of Bond driving through the Swiss Alps were actually shot in Switzerland with a healthy press presence to drum up publicity , Goldfinger was made at a time when Bond films were a bit more tightly budgeted. So Hamilton and company had to make extensive use of stand-ins for various exotic locales.
Instead, stand-ins were used for their shots, and the hotel sets were built at England's Pinewood Studios. The same was true for the scenes set in Swiss forests, Goldfinger's various lairs, and other key sets. The problem with Goldfinger 's climax happening at one of the most secure locations in the world was that the filmmakers couldn't actually gain access to the real Fort Knox, not even through photographs of the interior.
It fell to production designer Ken Adam and his team to create the production's own Fort Knox on the Pinewood backlot, but Broccoli rejected draftsman Peter Lamont's original blueprints, which made the place look a bit more like a bank.
Broccoli instead demanded "a cathedral of gold," so the team went back to the drawing board and conceived the set in the film, full of stacks of gold bars protected by steel grates. Adam considered the design "completely impractical" because the weight of the gold would have collapsed the multi-story structure in real life, but Broccoli was pleased with the look.
Ironically, the producers later got letters from American viewers angry that "a British film unit and director were allowed inside Fort Knox," a place even the President of the United States can't visit. However impractical, the illusion worked. For wide exteriors , Hamilton and a small crew used a nearby military base to simply zoom in on Fort Knox from afar, and used a single group of American soldiers over and over again to fall down at various locations to create the sequence in which Pussy Galore's pilots drop nerve gas on the fort.
It was producer Saltzman's idea to incorporate a laser beam into Goldfinger's schemes, and screenwriter Richard Maibaum's idea to use the technology to torture Bond himself, in what is now one of the most famous scenes in the whole franchise. The team even managed to get their hands on an actual industrial laser for the scene, but according to optical effects designer Cliff Culley, by the time the set was fully lit, the cameras couldn't pick up the beam.
By then, of course, the effects team couldn't just nix the effect, so they had to construct a workaround. The sheet of metal Bond was lying on was pre-cut, then solder was used to fill in the hole, which was painted over to blend with the surrounding table. To actually make the scene work, two effects technicians had to be under the table, one holding a light and the other using a cutting torch to produce the effect of a laser slicing through the table. It all looks very convincing once the laser beam is optically painted in, and it was all too real for Connery as it happened.
Of all the fantastic visuals throughout Goldfinger , the most memorable is probably still the one that was used as a key piece of marketing for the film: A nude woman covered entirely in gold paint. The woman was actress Shirley Eaton as Jill Masterson, Goldfinger's kept woman who was killed after she dared run off with Bond.
To make a point, Goldfinger's henchman killed Jill through "skin suffocation" by covering her completely in paint and leaving her on Bond's hotel bed. To achieve the effect, Eaton really was covered completely in gold paint, and the production kept a doctor on set just in case "skin suffocation" really did pose a danger. The illusion was so effective and so striking that it eventually spawned an urban legend that Eaton really was killed by the gold paint.

Trivia Though he had been considered for, but never appeared in a Bond movie, Sir Michael Caine was the first person to hear the completed score for this movie.
After he and roommate Terence Stamp were ejected from their apartment, Caine asked friend John Barry if he could use the spare bedroom at Barry's London residence. As they were good friends, Barry agreed and so for several months, Caine crashed with Barry and was there the sleepless night he completed his iconic score.
At breakfast the following morning, Barry played his composition for Caine, the first time he'd performed it for anybody. Goofs There is nothing about decompression that changes the aerodynamics of aircraft. Wings still produce lift and the control surfaces still function.
