DR. NO
1962, MGM/Park Circus, 111 min, UK, Dir: Terence Young
Now almost taken for granted, this initial adaptation of Ian Fleming�s spy novels was a subversive breath of fresh air, depicting for the first time a secret agent who was an unapologetically suave, promiscuous - not to mention homicidal hero. Sean Connery proved amazingly popular as the ultimate sexy beast, James Bond, ushering in the entire 1960s spy-film craze. One of the best of the Bond films, with its Caribbean locale, Ursula Andress� sensual presence as the feral nature girl and Joseph Wiseman as the evil mastermind with black metal hands.
GOLDFINGER
1964, MGM/Park Circus, 111 min, Dir: Guy Hamilton
"Do you expect me to talk, Goldfinger?" "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die," cackles homicidal villain Auric Goldfinger (Gert Frobe) as he prepares to re-arrange 007�s secret equipment with a laser beam, in what is widely considered to be the best of the classic Sean Connery Bond pictures and a high point in 1960s pop culture. Co-starring the saucy Honor Blackman as Bond�s nemesis-turned-partner Pussy Galore.
