Much of Bonds world revolves around his high-stakes missions as an MI6 agent.

Every spy needs a car, andthere’s nothing classier and sleeker than the Aston Martins DB5.
Then again, Bond is not a regular spy.
Considering the year the film was released, these special effects were ahead of its time.

9Laser Interrogation Scene
James Bond was sweating for his life.
Even the brightest of spiescan be helpless in the hands of their villains.
Its also the scene where Goldfinger quips out one of the movies most memorable quotes: No, Mr.

I expect you to die.

7"Shaken, Not Stirred."
The go-to vodka martini order.
Bonds vodka martini, his drink of choice,already made its appearance in the previous two movies.

But the spy only started using his signature phrase, shaken, not stirred, inGoldfinger.
However, stirred, not shaken, just doesnt quite sound right.
In the previous films, viewers see Bond being handed his vodka martini in non-threatening situations.

6The Naked Golden Lady
Cause of death: skin suffocation.
Shirley Eatonmight only have her few minutes of fame inGoldfinger.
Her death is the epitome of the films title itself.

InGoldfinger,her demise is ruled out as death by skin suffocation.
In the 2008 filmQuantum of Solace, this method of dying is recreated.
5Pussy Galore
Whats in a name?

With a name as astounding as Pussy Galore (Honor Blackman), heads are bound to roll.
As one of Goldfingers employees, shes not to be messed with.
All she cares for is the money, which shell use to move to the Bahamas.

The Bond girls may be pretty, but theyre just as deadly as the spy himself.
4The Golf Scene
A master class in character study.
The golf scene inGoldfingerisa master class in character study.

In this scene alone, he comes across as a complete, careless buffoon.
But the moment he loses to Bond, he immediately switches to his more sinister side.
3Oddjob
Silence speaks a thousand words.

Every villain needs an evil sidekick.
Whats even more interesting is the man playing Oddjob.Goldfingermarked Sakatas first acting gig.
2Q
Not everyone is impressed with Bond.
I never joke about my work, 007.
Theres something different about Q (Desmond Llewelyn) inGoldfinger.
InGoldfinger, his role is still the same.
But unlike previous adaptations of Q, theGoldfingeriterationsees a much more no-nonsense quartermaster.
After all, Bonds just doing his job.
1Guy Hamilton
The director who revolutionized the Bond franchise.
Goldfingerwouldnt be what it is without Hamilton.
As the second director in the Bond cinematic world, Hamilton immediately shifted the 007 tone.
