Remember when we had a real James Bond? I still say that Sean Connery owned the role, and here he is in Goldfinger, trying to save the Fort Knox gold supply from a nuclear bomb. And Oddjob, Goldfinger's prime henchman, is standing in his way.
Take notes, Daniel Craig. Then go away.
Pussy Galore... there's a name you never forget. Though it's tough to think she'll be 90 next month.
ReplyDeleteNow I can't get the image of a 90 year old Honor Blackman out of my head.

The first Bond contact I had, between 6th and 7th Grade.
ReplyDeleteWent out the next day to the bookstore and bought From Russia With Love.
Then bought the rest of the books - one at a time, they were 50-60 cents each!. And eventually read them in order.
NEVER expose a pubescent child to girls, guns, cars, action, coolness...it'll scar him for LIFE! :-)
That was a great one! And yes, Connery was and is still Bond!
ReplyDeleteJames Bond's of today have to be more in touch with their emotions and more sensitive. More metrosexual.
ReplyDeleteYep. And the more they throw that crap at us, the more I wear out my Connery Bond tapes.
DeleteYep. I'm a Sean Connery purist.
ReplyDeleteSean Connery is the only Bond
