Maibaum, Richard Dehn, Paul James Bond Goldfinger (1964)
The third installment in the 007 series finds überspy James Bond (Sean Connery) trying to thwart baddie Auric Goldfinger (Gert Fröbe) and his elaborate gambit to corner the gold market by contaminating Fort Knox. Naturally, the oh-so-cool Mr. Bond jets to scores of exotic locales and boffs a bevy of beauties along the way -- including Pussy Galore, the archvillain's sexy henchwoman. Goldfinger racked up an Oscar for Best Sound Effects.

10.
DOLLY IN as Bond feels his arm then walks into his hut, Felix
following.
FELIX
You must be slipping double-o
seven, letting the opposition get
that close to you.
Bond takes a blue terry-cloth top from a chair and puts it on.
BOND
They got a lot closer to you in
Jamaica, didn’t they? -- Well,
what’s on your mind? I’m on
holiday.
FELIX
(taking out a letter)
Not any more, you’re not. Signal
from London.
DOLLY IN as Bond takes it from him.
BOND
I might have known "M" wouldn’t
book me into the best hotel in
Miami Beach out of pure gratitude.
FELIX
He asked us to keep an eye on him
for you.
BOND
(reading the cable)
Auric Goldfinger. Sounds like a
French nail varnish.
FELIX
He’s British, but he doesn’t sound
like it. Big operator, world-wide
interests, all apparently quite
reputable. Owns one of the finest
stud farms in the States.
BOND
(zipping up his top)
What’s the tie-up with Washington?
FELIX
He’s clean as far as C.I.A.’s
concerned.
BOND
And where do I find him?

Felix points off. Bond looks that way.
[END OF REEL 1. START REEL 2.]

That’s his pigeon waiting for him
now.
Bond looks off.

walks past sunbathers then sees Simmons and smiles.
AT THE TABLE
Goldfinger walks up to Simmons.
GOLDFINGER
Good morning, Mister Simmons.
Ready for our little game?
SIMMONS’
Sure I’m ready. When you’re ten
grand in the hole, you’re ready for
anything.
GOLDFINGER
(pointing to Simmons’
chair)
Could I have my usual seat?
SIMMONS
(rising)
Oh, you and your suntan!
12.
BOND AND FELIX
As Bond picks up his towel:
FELIX
That Goldfinger’s a fabulous card
player.
AT THE TABLE
Goldfinger picks up a pencil and starts to write on a notepad.
GOLDFINGER
Same stakes?
SIMMONS
Let’s double it. Five dollars a
point.
Goldfinger looks up in surprise then takes a hearing-aid
amplifier from his pocket and turns up the volume.
GOLDFINGER
Did you say five?
SIMMONS
My luck’s got to change sometime.
GOLDFINGER
(returning the amplifier
to his pocket)
Okay.
He writes on the notepad. Simmons sets the deck of cards on
the table.
BOND AND FELIX
Bond now has the towel over his shoulder.
FELIX
I’ll get back to the office and
cable "M" you’re on the job.
BOND
You can fill me in on the rest at
dinner.
FELIX
Fine. I’ll call you later.
Felix walks off. Bond keeps looking at Goldfinger.

The two men hold cards. Goldfinger takes one from the deck.
Bond walks toward the table. He stops for a moment, watching,
then walks closer.
Goldfinger takes another card.
Bond looks from the men to the hotel.
Goldfinger suddenly lays his cards down.
GOLDFINGER
Four.
SIMMONS
(stunned)
So soon?
Bond keeps looking at the hotel, then back at the table.
GOLDFINGER
How many?
SIMMONS
Seven, twelve, eighteen, thirtytwo,
forty-four...
Goldfinger laughs.
Bond keeps looking at the table, then circles behind it
looking over Goldfinger’s shoulder, then walks off.
Goldfinger smiles at Simmons. Simmons shuffles the cards.
INT. HOTEL CORRIDOR - DAY
TRACK after a MAID walking down the hall. Bond rounds a
corner up ahead and walks to her.
BOND
Miss?
He takes a key hanging by a cord from her waist and, pulling
her with him, unlocks a door (number 905).
MAID
Hey, what are you...? But that’s
Mister Goldfinger’s suite!
BOND
(happily)
Yes, I know.
14.
He opens the door, starts to enter then looks back at her.

You’re very sweet.
He closes the door behind him. The maid walks away.
INT. GOLDFINGER’S SUITE - SAME TIME
PAN then DOLLY ALONGSIDE Bond as he walks through a wellappointed
reception room to a glass door to a veranda. As he
approaches the door we hear a female voice outside -- that of
JILL MASTERSON:
JILL (O.S.)
He just drew the king of clubs.
That makes his hand fifty-nine.
He’s got a diamond run, eight,
nine, ten.
Bond starts to open the door.
BOND’S POV - THE VERANDA
Jill lies face-down on a chaise lounge looking downward
through fixed binoculars and talks into a microphone attached
to an intercom.
JILL
He’s holding onto the six of
spades...
REVERSE ANGLE
Jill lies face-up as Bond looks at her through the open
doorway behind her.
JILL
(into the microphone)
... so I guess he thinks you want
it. That last draw was the eight
of hearts.
Bond approaches her.
ANGLE ON JILL
She lies face-down, still talking, unaware of Bond behind her.
JILL
He needs kings and queens.
Bond reaches down and turns off the intercom.
15.
JILL
lying face-down whirls around to face him.
JILL
Who are you?!
UPWARD ANGLE ON BOND
DOLLY IN as he approaches.
BOND
Bond. James Bond.
He looks down.
BOND’S POV - THE POOL AREA
The view from the veranda shows everything.
AT THE TABLE
Goldfinger tries raising the volume on his amplifier.
Simmons looks at his cards.
DOLLY IN on Goldfinger touching his earpiece.

(happily)
Ah! That’s more like it!
ON THE VERANDA
CRANE DOWN with Bond as he sits beside Jill, who sits face-up.
BOND
What’s your name?
JILL
Jill.

Goldfinger’s hand reaches in and takes a card from the deck.
JILL (O.S.)
Jill Masterson.
BACK TO SCENE
BOND
(looking at her)
Tell me, Jill. Why does he do it?
JILL
He likes to win.
BOND
(looking through the
binoculars again)
Why do you do it?
JILL
He pays me.
BOND
(looking back at her)
Is that all he pays you for?
JILL
And for being seen with him.
BOND
Just seen?
JILL
(emphatically)
Just seen.
BOND
I’m so glad.
He looks through the binoculars again and sees Simmons setting
down another card.
BOND
You’re much too nice to be mixed up
in anything like this, you know.
He reaches down.
CLOSE SHOT - THE INTERCOM
Bond turns it on again.
17.
INTERCUT - BOND AND GOLDFINGER (THROUGH BINOCULARS)
Bond snaps his fingers against the microphone.
Goldfinger suddenly looks up, quaking from the noise.
Bond looks through the binoculars.
BOND
(into microphone)
Now hear this, Goldfinger.
Goldfinger looks up at his balcony.
BOND
Your luck has just changed.
Goldfinger keeps looking up.
BOND
I doubt very much if the Miami
Beach police would take kindly to
what you’re doing.
He grins at Jill then looks back through the binoculars.
BOND
Nod your head if you agree.
Goldfinger sits in silent fury.
BOND
Nod!
Goldfinger nods as subtly as he can.
BOND
Good. Now start losing,
Goldfinger. Shall we say, eh, ten
thousand dollars?
(looks at Jill)
No, let’s be generous. Let’s make
it fifteen thousand.
Goldfinger’s face reflects even greater anger.
JILL
(to Bond)
May I see?
Bond leans back helpfully. Jill sits up and looks through the
binoculars. Bond sniffs her hair.
18.
AT THE TABLE
Goldfinger reluctantly throws another card down, his gaze not
moving from his balcony. Simmons takes it.
SIMMONS
Well, I can see this is really my
day!
(lays his cards down)
Gin!
ON THE VERANDA
Jill smiles and leans back. Bond looks through the binoculars
again.
BOND’S POV - GOLDFINGER
has a snarling expression on his face. The binoculars tilt
down in time to see him snap his pencil in half. He jabs one
end of it into the tabletop.
ON THE VERANDA
BOND
(into microphone)
Over and out.
He looks over and switches off the intercom.
TWO-SHOT - BOND AND JILL
She looks up at him smiling.
BOND
That should keep him occupied for
some time.
SLOW DOLLY IN.
JILL
I’m beginning to like you, Mister
Bond.
BOND
(laying his arm against
her face)
No, call me James.
JILL
More than anyone I’ve met in a long
time, James.
19.
BOND
Well, what on earth are we going to
do about it?
JILL
Yes... What?
BOND
I’ll tell you at dinner.
JILL
Where?
BOND
Well, I know the best place in
town.
He pulls the couch and her head toward him and kisses her.
DISSOLVE TO:
INT. BOND’S HOTEL ROOM - NIGHT
CLOSE SHOT on the remains of a meal. PAN OVER to the bed.
First we just see Bond’s and Jill’s feet rubbing against each
other. Then, PANNING FURTHER, we see them embracing and
kissing, Bond shirtless and Jill in panties wearing his shirt.
PAN even further -- to the nightstand where a portable radio
is playing.
RADIO ANNOUNCER
Station W.E.D.S. brings you the
latest in world news. Washington.
At the White House this afternoon,
the President said he was entirely

Oh, Felix.
He swings his legs off the bed.
FELIX (over phone)
Well, now?
BOND
Uh, what’s that?
Jill rises behind him, puts her chin on his shoulder and rubs
a lock of her hair against her ear.
BOND
Dinner? Uh, no. Look, I’m sorry,
I can’t. Something big’s come up.
FELIX (over phone)
Right.
Bond scratches his ear and pushes the hair away.
BOND
Uh, how about breakfast?
FELIX (over phone)
Okay.
JILL
(whispering into Bond’s
ear)
Not too early.
Bond cups a hand over the phone, plants his other hand on her
face and shoves her back. PAN on her as she lands on the bed
smiling and pulls her shirt down.
FELIX (over phone)
I’ll call you around nine.
BOND (O.S.)

BOND

BOND
(disappointed)
Oh, it’s lost its chill.
CLOSE SHOT - CHAMPAGNE BOTTLE
Bond’s hand is feeling the bottle. He picks it up. TILT UP

It’s all right. There’s another in
the fridge.
Bond gets up. Jill rolls over to face him, grinning.
JILL
Who needs it?
WIDE ANGLE
Bond sets the bottle on a dressing table and picks up his
bathrobe.
BOND
My dear girl, there are some things
that just aren’t done...
PAN on him as he walks into the kitchen putting on the
bathrobe. A bamboo screen separates the kitchen from the
bedroom.
BOND
... such as drinking Dom Perignon
’fifty-three above a temperature of
thirty-eight degrees Fahrenheit.
That’s as bad as listening to the
Beatles without ear-muffs.
He opens the refrigerator and kneels.
22.
CLOSER ON BOND
He looks in the fridge.
BOND
Now, where is this passion juice?
A MAN’S HAND suddenly comes up into frame. He wears a black
jacket.
DOLLY IN as the hand approaches bond. Bond opens a
refrigerator drawer, finding the champagne bottle and taking
it.
The hand gives Bond a sharp karate chop on the neck, knocking
him to the floor. TILT DOWN as he falls, face-up, the bottle
rolling beside him.
ANGLE ON THE WALL
The man’s shadow appears on wood paneling on the kitchen wall.
He turns sideways. He is thickly built and sports a bowler
hat. He is ODDJOB.
WIDER ANGLE
As Bond lies unconscious in f.g., the shadow on the wall moves
away.
SLOW DISSOLVE TO:
INT. BOND’S HOTEL KITCHEN - NIGHT
Bond and the champagne bottle lie on the floor.
DOLLY BACK. Bond begins to move, regaining consciousness. He
rolls onto his side and slowly lifts himself. He braces a
hand on the stove and feels the side of his head, then starts
moving off.
ANGLE ON THE KITCHEN ENTRYWAY
Bond emerges around the bamboo screen and walks forward.
BOND
(calling)
Jill?!
He turns a corner then suddenly stops, turns on the lights and
looks off aghast.

hanging over the side of the bed -- dead.

lying there.
CLOSER ON BOND
His face registers terrible concern.
WIDER ANGLE
PAN and TILT UP on Bond as he moves to the bed.
BOND’S POV - JILL’S UPPER TORSO
Her entire face and hair are painted gold. She looks oddly
serene.
BOND
sits on the bed beside her and touches her shoulder. His
expression shows he recognizes she is dead.
He picks up the phone. DOLLY IN closer.
RECEPTIONIST (on phone)
Yes, Mister Bond?
BOND
Beach seven-nine-four-three-two,
room one-one-nine...
As he waits he looks at
JILL’S LEGS
which are completely painted gold.
ANGLE ON BOND
waiting for a response. Then:
FELIX’ VOICE (over phone)
Hello?
BOND
Hello, Felix? Get over here right
away.
FELIX (over phone)
What’s up?
24.
BOND
The girl’s dead.
FELIX (over phone)
(in alarm)
Dink?

EXT. LONDON - DAY
Big Ben and Westminster Palace in f.g.
CUT TO:
INT. "M’S" OFFICE - DAY
Bond stands at attention in f.g., "M" in b.g. by a window
looking at him.
"M"
Gold? All over?
BOND
(nodding)
She died of skin suffocation. It’s
been known to happen to cabaret
dancers.
TRACK LEFT as "M" paces toward a bookcase.
BOND
It’s all right provided you leave a
small bare patch at the base of the
spine to allow the skin to breathe.
TRACK RIGHT as "M" paces back toward the window.
"M"
Somebody obviously didn’t.
BOND
And I know who.
"M" stops and walks up to him.
25.
"M"
This isn’t a personal vendetta,
double-o-seven. It’s an assignment
like any other. And if you can’t
treat it as such, coldly and
objectively, then double-o-eight
can replace you.
PAN on "M" as he walks behind his desk.
"M"
You’ve hardly distinguished
yourself, have you? You were
supposed to observe Mister
Goldfinger, not borrow his
girlfriend.
INTERCUT - BOND AND "M"
Bond looks patiently at "M" as "M" gives him his "medicine."
"M" (O.S.)
Instead of that, Goldfinger goes
off to Europe and it’s only by the
grace of God, your friend Leiter,
and my intervention with the
British Embassy in Washington that
you’re not in the custody of the
Miami Beach police.
BOND
Sir, I’m aware of my short-comings.
But I am prepared to continue this
assignment in the spirit you
suggest -- if I knew what it was
about... sir.
"M"
(putting on his glasses)
What do you know about gold? -- Not
paint, bullion.
BOND
I know it when I see it.
"M" picks up a piece of paper and reads it.
"M"
(without looking up)
Meet me here at seven. Black tie.
Bond looks back at "M" then turns and walks to the door. "M"
continues reading the paper.

INT. MISS MONEYPENNY’S OFFICE - DAY
MISS MONEYPENNY turns from a filing cabinet with a file as
Bond emerges through the outer doorway of "M’s" office. He
closes the padded door behind him. DOLLY IN closer.
BOND
And what do you know about gold,
Moneypenny?
PAN on Bond as he walks to the hat-rack and takes his hat.
MONEYPENNY
(leaning back against
her desk)
Oh, the only gold I know about is
the kind you wear...
(holding her hand up)
... you know, third finger of your
left hand?
DOLLY IN further as Bond approaches her.
BOND
Hmm. One of these days we really
must look into that.
MISS MONEYPENNY
Well, what about tonight?
(she takes his hat)
You come round for dinner...
She tosses his hat. In an insert, it lands on the hat-rack.
MISS MONEYPENNY
... and I’ll cook you a beautiful
angel cake.
Bond, looking in surprise at the hat-rack, turns back to Miss
Moneypenny.
BOND
Nothing would give me greater
pleasure. But unfortunately, I do
have a business appointment.
She pushes him back and walks behind her desk.
MISS MONEYPENNY
That’s the flimsiest excuse you’ve
ever given me. Ah, well, some
girls have all the luck. Who is
she, James?
27.
Just then "M’s" voice comes over the intercom:
"M" (filtered)
She is me, Miss Moneypenny.
IN "M’S" OFFICE - SAME TIME
"M" stands over his intercom holding a switch down.
"M"
And kindly omit the customary byplay
with double-o-seven. He’s
dining with me and I don’t want him
to be late.
IN MISS MONEYPENNY’S OFFICE
Bond shuts off the intercom.
MISS MONEYPENNY
(surprised)
So there’s hope for me yet?
Bond kisses her cheek then walks to the hat-rack.
BOND
Moneypenny, won’t you ever believe
me?
He takes his hat and opens the door.
ANGLE ON MISS MONEYPENNY
She sits behind her desk smiling as we hear the door close.
DISSOLVE TO:
INT. BANK DINING ROOM - NIGHT
In MEDIUM CLOSE SHOT we see three men sitting at the table:
COLONEL SMITHERS at the head of the table, "M" on the left and
Bond on the right. Each has a brandy snifter in front of him
and there is a decanter in front of Smithers. "M" takes a
sip.
A servant, BRUNSKILL, walks over holding a cigar box. He
offers it to "M" who takes a cigar, then crosses behind Bond
and offers it but Bond waves him off.
At the same time we PULL BACK across the extremely long table
until we see a candelabra at each end and an end table in f.g.
28.
SMITHERS
We here at the Bank of England,
Mister Bond, are the official
depository for gold bullion, just as
Fort Knox, Kentucky is for the
United States. We know, of course,
the amounts we each hold, we know
the amounts deposited in other
banks, and we can estimate what is
being held for industrial purposes.
This enables the two governments to
establish respectively the true
value of the dollar and the pound.
Consequently, we are vitally
concerned with unauthorized
leakages.
BOND
I take it you mean...
TWO-SHOT - BOND AND SMITHERS
BOND
...smuggling.
SMITHERS
Yes.
Brunskill holds the box out to Smithers and he takes a cigar,
then hands it back so Brunskill can clip its end. Meanwhile
"M" off-screen lights his cigar and blows out a puff of smoke.
SMITHERS
Gold, gentlemen, which has been
melted down and recast, is
virtually untraceable, which makes
it, uh, unlike diamonds, ideal for
smuggling, attracting the biggest
and most ingenious criminals.
Brunskill, bowing slightly, hands Smithers the clipped cigar.
SMITHERS
Thank you, Brunskill. That will be
all.
BRUNSKILL
Thank you, sir.
Brunskill exits. Smithers picks up the decanter and hands it
to Bond.
29.
SMITHERS
Have a little more of this, uh,
rather disappointing brandy.
MEDIUM SHOT - "M"
"M"
Well, what’s the matter with it?
BOND AND SMITHERS
BOND
(looking at the decanter)
I’d say it was a thirty-year-old
fiend indifferently blended, sir...
"M"
holding his snifter, looks at Bond.
BOND
takes out the stopper and sniffs the contents.
BOND
... with an overdose of Bon Bois.
"M"
"M"
Colonel Smithers is giving the
lecture, double-o-seven.
BOND
pouring some brandy from the decanter into his glass, freezes.
THREE-SHOT
The decanter with the stopper in it now sits on the table in
front of Bond, his hand on it.
SMITHERS
Gentlemen, Mister Goldfinger has
gold bullion on deposit in Zurich,
Amsterdam, Caracas and Hong Kong,
worth twenty million pounds. Most
of it comes from this country.
Bond passes him the decanter.
BOND
Well, why move it?
Smithers passes the decanter to "M."
30.
SMITHERS
Because the price of gold varies
from country to country. If you
buy it here at thirty dollars an
ounce, you can sell it in, say,
Pakistan at a hundred and ten
dollars and triple your money...
"M"
holding the stopper in his hand, sniffs at the decanter then
looks up at Bond.
SMITHERS (O.S.)
... providing, of course, you have
the facilities for melting it down.
BOND
BOND
And has he?
THREE-SHOT
"M" puts the stopper back in the decanter and sets it down.
SMITHERS
(lowers his cigar)
Apart from being a legitimate
bullion dealer, Mister Goldfinger
poses -- eh, no, that’s not quite
fair...
CLOSE SHOT - SMITHERS
now holds the cigar at his mouth.
SMITHERS
... is, among his many other
interests, a legitimate
international jeweler. He’s, uh,
legally entitled to operate modest
metallurgical installations.
BOND
sits thinking.
31.
THREE-SHOT
SMITHERS
His British one is down in Kent.
As yet, we have failed to discover
how he transfers his gold overseas,
and Lord knows we’ve tried.
(he turns to "M")
If your department can establish
that it is done illegally, then the
Bank could institute proceedings to
recover the bulk of his holdings.
"M" looks on in agreement.
SMITHERS AND BOND
BOND
I think it’s time Mister Goldfinger
and I met -- socially, of course.
SMITHERS
I was hoping you’d say that.
Smithers rises. PAN on him as he walks off frame, leaving "M"
in f.g.
"M"
It might lead to a business talk --
Mister Goldfinger’s kind of
business.
BOND
BOND
I’ll need some sort of bait.
SMITHERS (O.S.)
I quite agree.
THREE-SHOT
TRACK with Smithers as he returns to the table holding an
object wrapped in green cloth.
SMITHERS
This is the only one we have, from
the Nazi hoard from the bottom of
Lake Toplitz in the Salzkammergut,
but there are undoubtedly others.
He sets it on the table and unwraps the covering, revealing:
32.
CLOSE SHOT - A BAR OF GOLD
SMITHERS (O.S.)
Mister Bond can make whatever use
of it he thinks fit...
THREE-SHOT
Smithers sits back in his chair.
SMITHERS
... providing he returns it, of
course. It’s worth five thousand
pounds.
He lifts his snifter.
CLOSE SHOT - THE BAR OF GOLD
gleams beautifully.
BOND
looks at it then reaches forward.
THE BAR OF GOLD
Bond’s hand touches it.
"M"
holds a hand up, stopping him.
"M"
You’ll draw it from "Q" branch with
the rest of your equipment in the
morning.
BOND
looks back at him and straightens his cuff.
BOND
But of course, sir.
"M"
grins enigmatically at Bond then raises his snifter.
DISSOLVE TO:
33.
INT. "Q" BRANCH - DAY
TWO MEN in a glass cubicle wearing gas masks face a parking
meter. One of them puts a coin into it. White gas instantly
shoots from it, filling the cubicle.
WIDER ANGLE
Bond stands outside the cubicle watching the gas expand.
DOLLY BACK as Bond walks with a hand in his pocket to a bench.
"Q" bends over the bench beside a sitting man and points to an
object he’s working on.
Bond picks up a hand grenade and looks at it.
BOND
Good morning, "Q."
"Q" immediately takes it from him and sets it down in a
container.
"Q"
Good morning, double-o-seven. This
way, please.
DOLLY WITH THEM as they walk away from the bench.
BOND
My, we are busy this morning.
TWO MEN in an alcove behind them come into view. One wears a
trench coat, the other aims a machine gun at him. Suddenly
the gunner fires at the other man. Bond and "Q" react and
look back.
CLOSER ANGLE
The gunner keeps firing. The other man looks to one side,
apparently not feeling the shots. The gunner stops shooting
and the other man pulls back his trench coat, revealing a
bullet-proof vest. He looks down at it.
WIDER ANGLE
The man lowers his hands and feels his crotch as the shooter
looks on. The man looks at the shooter then feels his crotch
again.
"Q" turns to Bond.
"Q"
It’s not perfected yet.
34.
BOND
Where’s my Bentley?
"Q"
It’s had its day, I’m afraid.
DOLLY BACK as they walk forward. A large "NO SMOKING" sign
comes into view behind them.
BOND
But it’s never let me down.
"Q"
"M’s" orders, double-o-seven.
"Q" points off. PAN OVER to reveal a gray Aston-Martin. The
license plate, white-on-black, reads "BMT 216A."
"Q" (O.S.)
You’ll be using this Aston-Martin
D.B.-Five with modifications.
TWO-SHOT
Bond and "Q" look down at the car.
"Q"
Now pay attention, please.
"Q" steps over to the car and taps the windshield.
"Q"
Windscreen, bullet-proof...
(points backwards)
... as are the side and rear
windows.
He reaches in, turning a switch on the dashboard.
"Q"
Revolving number plates, naturally.
CLOSE SHOT - THE FRONT LICENSE PLATE
It revolves to a white-on-black plate, 4711-EA-62, then a
black-on-white plate, LU-6789, then back to the original
plate.
"Q" (O.S.)
Valid all countries.
TWO-SHOT
"Q" reaches into his pocket and takes out a small silver case.
DOLLY IN on "Q" and Bond.
35.
"Q"
Here’s a nice little transmitting
device called a "Homer."
CLOSE SHOT - THE "HOMER"
"Q" (O.S.)
You prime it by pressing that back,
like this. You see?
He pulls back the outer cover and the device beeps. Then he
holds up a tiny version of the same device.
"Q"
The smaller model is now standard
field issue, to be fitted into the
heel of your shoe. Its larger
brother is magnetic.
He releases the tiny version and it sticks to the larger one.
TWO-SHOT
Bond takes the devices from "Q."
"Q"
Right. To be concealed in the car
you’re trailing while you keep out
of sight.
"Q" opens the passenger door and sits inside.
"Q"
Reception on the dashboard, here.
CLOSE SHOT - THE DASHBOARD
"Q" presses a button and a small grill on the dashboard opens
with a humming sound, revealing a green "scope."
"Q"
Audio-visual range a hundred and
fifty miles.
He turns a dial. An indicator "blip" appears in the middle of
the scope and makes a beeping sound.
BOND (O.S.)
Ingenious -- and useful, too.
TWO-SHOT
BOND
Allow a man to stop off for a quick
one on route.
36.
"Q"
(exasperated)
It has not been perfected after
years of patient research and time
for that purpose, double-o-seven.
"Q" gets out of the car and shuts the door. Bond glances at
the gadgets in his hand then leans an arm on the roof of the
car.
"Q"
And incidentally, we’d appreciate
its return, along with all your
other equipment -- intact, for
once, when you return from the
field.
BONED
Well, you’d be surprised the amount
of wear-and-tear that goes on out
there in the field. Anything else?
"Q" walks forward. DOLLY IN on Bond, looking bored.
"Q"
Well, I won’t keep you for more
than an hour or so if you give me
your undivided attention. We’ve
installed some rather interesting
modifications.
Bond signs and leans more heavily against the car.
"Q"
walks around to the driver’s side and points in through the
window.
"Q"
You see this arm here?
Bond looks in through the passenger window.
CLOSE SHOT - THE CONSOLE
"Q’s" hand reaches inside and taps the top of the console.
"Q" (O.S.)
Now open the top, and inside are
your defense mechanism controls:
"Q" opens the top, revealing numerous switches. He points to
many (but not all) of them.
37.
"Q" (O.S.)
... smoke screen, oil slick, rear
bullet-proof screen, and left and
right front-wing machine guns.
He closes the top.
BOND
looks on patiently but without much interest.
"Q" (O.S.)
Now this one I’m particularly keen
about.
Bond looks inside again.
CLOSE SHOT - THE STICK SHIFT
"Q’s" finger points to it.
"Q" (O.S.)
You see the gear lever here? Now,
if you take the top off...
(he flips the top
open, revealing a
red button)
... you’ll find a little red
button.
He closes the top again.
MEDIUM SHOT - "Q"
"Q"
Whatever you do, don’t touch it.
MEDIUM SHOT - BOND
BOND
And why not?
MEDIUM SHOT - "Q"
He holds his hands over the roof.
"Q"

Whoosh!

brown coat over a yellow sweater, brown striped tie, brown
golfing pants and shoes, and he holds a matching brown cap.
GOLDFINGER
Ready, Blacking?
BLACKING
Yes, sir.
DOLLY BACK to reveal Bond in f.g. He wears a purple sweater
and black slacks and is looking at a rack of golf clubs.
BLACKING
(to Goldfinger)
Uh, there’s an old member dropped
by, sir. Same handicap as yours.
I wondered if you would rather play
with him?
GOLDFINGER
Where is he?
Blacking turns to Bond.
BLACKING
Uh, Mister Bond?
39.
BOND
turns to Blacking.
BOND
Yes?
BLACKING (O.S.)
This is Mister Goldfinger.
GOLDFINGER
turns and looks at Bond. He studies him a moment, then
speaks.
GOLDFINGER
How do you do?
BOND
looks back at Goldfinger.
BOND
How do you do?
GOLDFINGER
keeps looking at Bond.
BOND

BLACKING (O.S.)
You can go straight off. The first
tee is clear.
THREE-SHOT
DOLLY IN as Bond walks past them to the door.
BOND
Fine.
BLACKING
I’ll get Hawker to carry for you,
Mister Bond.
BOND
(turning back)
Well, that’ll be splendid.
(to Goldfinger)
Shall we make it a shilling a hole?
40.
GOLDFINGER
Um-hmm.
Bond smiles at him and walks out the door.
EXT. GOLF SHOP - SAME TIME
As Bond emerges we hear Goldfinger talking to Blacking:
GOLDFINGER (O.S.)
I’ll take some tees.
BLACKING (O.S.)
Ah, yes. Of course.
Bond suddenly looks ahead and stops.
BOND’S POV - THE GOLF COURSE
ODDJOB steps into a rigid stance right across from him. A
golf bag hangs incongruously from his shoulder.
ANGLE ON BOND
Goldfinger comes out of the shop behind him, smiling at Bond’s
concerned look.
GOLDFINGER
Oh, you must excuse Oddjob, Mister
Bond. He’s an admirable
manservant, but mute. He’s not a
very good caddy.
PAN on them as they walk past Oddjob.
GOLDFINGER
(shrugging at Oddjob)
Golf is not yet the national game
of Korea, eh?
Oddjob waits until they are some distance away then follows.
SLOW DISSOLVE TO:
EXT. GOLF COURSE - DAY
Bond stands on a putting green at his ball. He wears a black

BOND
My game?

foundry at Essen.
BOND
Part of a smelt of six hundred.
GOLDFINGER
They vanished in 1944.
BOND
When the Nazis were on the run.
GOLDFINGER
And you have access to more?
BOND
Yes, from the same source.
GOLDFINGER
Interesting.
WIDE ANGLE
They approach a teeing ground where a marker says "17."
GOLDFINGER
Two holes to go.
BOND
Yes, and all square.
Bond plants his ball on a tee.
GOLDFINGER
Then you have no objection to

No. What do you have in mind?

INTERCUT - GOLDFINGER AND BOND
GOLDFINGER
The bar of gold you have with you,

Oh, I’ll stake the cash equivalent.
BOND
Naturally.

down at his ball)
WIDE ANGLE
Bond raises his club to swing.
GOLDFINGER

Strict rules of golf?
BOND
freezes in mid-stroke and lowers the club.
BOND
But of course.
GOLDFINGER
nods and sways from side to side.
WIDE ANGLE
Bond swings at the ball, striking it cleanly across the
fairway.
Goldfinger watches it go. So does Oddjob.
BOND’S POV - THE FAIRWAY
The ball sails far away then lands.
[END OF REEL 3. START REEL 4.]
Smiling tightly, Bond crosses Goldfinger, who takes a club
from Oddjob and approaches the tee. Bond watches.
44.
Goldfinger sets his ball down and readies himself. In a
reverse angle on his legs, his club hits the ball squarely and
the ball flies into the distance.
Goldfinger watches it go. So does Bond, who steps forward
grinning.
AN AREA OF ROUGH
Goldfinger’s ball sails across an area of rough and lands near
some trees.

GOLDFINGER
Slazenger Number One. Good.
He holds his hand out. Oddjob passes him a club.
BOND AND HAWKER
Bond stops searching and looks up at Goldfinger. Hawker walks
up.
HAWKER
If that’s his original ball, I’m
Arnold Palmer.
BOND
’Tisn’t.
HAWKER
How do you know?
BOND
I’m standing on it.
Hawker looks down. Bond raises his foot revealing the ball.
HAWKER

Why you crafty old...
Hawker starts to reach down.
BOND
Leave it.
Bond holds up the other ball.
HAWKER

Would you like me to mark it or
knock it in?
GOLDFINGER
Um-hmm, play it.
Bond taps his ball into the cup.
Goldfinger walks up to his ball.
GOLDFINGER

BOND
That’s right.
Goldfinger leans over with his club. In an angle on his legs,
he hits the ball and it rolls into the cup.
Bond, hand in his pocket, looks up at him.
Goldfinger rises haughtily and grins.
Bond glances back at Hawker then, as we TILT DOWN, takes his
hand from his pocket. We glimpse the hidden ball in his hand.
He reaches into the cup and withdraws two balls. TILT BACK UP
to his face.
BOND
(to Goldfinger)
One to go. That’ll be the
clincher.
GOLDFINGER
Fine.
Bond tosses a ball to Goldfinger, who reaches out gracefully

GOLDFINGER
Down in five.
BOND
(preparing to putt)
I’ll have to sink this to have the
game, right?
Bond putts. The ball curves away from the hole, just missing
it.
BOND
Yaagh! You win, Goldfinger.
GOLDFINGER
It seems I am too good for you.
Bond reaches into the cup and takes out both balls. He looks
at one.
BOND
Hmm. You play a Slazenger One,
don’t you?
Goldfinger, who has been leaning triumphantly on his club,
approaches.
GOLDFINGER
Yes. Why?
BOND
(holding Goldfinger’s
ball up)
This is a Slazenger Seven.
Goldfinger takes it. Bond holds up the other ball.
BOND
Here’s my Penfold Hearts.
Goldfinger looks in shock at the ball in his hand.
50.
BOND
You must have played the wrong ball
somewhere on the eighteenth
fairway. We are playing strict
rules, so I’m afraid you lose the
hole and the match.
Goldfinger glares up at Oddjob. Oddjob looks back without
expression.
Goldfinger hurls his ball to the ground and walks off as Bond
smiles. Hawker approaches with the flag, grinning broadly,
and plants it beside the hole.
DISSOLVE TO:

But I see that it is necessary to
remind you. Oddjob!

THEIR POV - A STATUE
It is a classic Greek statue of a woman.
ODDJOB
takes off his bowler hat, steps over to Bond and Goldfinger,
and flings his hat at the statue.
The hat flies through the air and crosses the statue, knocking
the head off. The head and hat land at the base of the
statue.
BOND AND GOLDFINGER
look up at Oddjob, who walks off to retrieve his hat. DOLLY
IN on Bond and Goldfinger.
BOND
Remarkable. But what does the club
secretary have to say?
GOLDFINGER.
Oh, nothing, Mister Bond. I own
the club.
Goldfinger wipes his eye, opens the car door, gets in and
lowers a tabletop.
GOLDFINGER
I assume you want the check made
out to cash.
BOND
That would be perfectly
satisfactory.
Goldfinger looks at him with a sneer.
ODDJOB
PAN on him and he returns to the car straightening his hat.
He passes behind the car to the driver’s side. Meanwhile
Goldfinger tears a check from his checkbook and hands it to
Bond.
GOLDFINGER
Goodbye, Mister Bond.
Goldfinger shuts his door as Oddjob gets in behind the wheel.
Bond plays with a ball in his hand then tosses it to Oddjob
who catches it.
BOND
Oh, uh... I believe this is yours.
53.
Oddjob glares at Bond and squeezes the ball. Bond looks on.
The ball fractures into little pieces that Oddjob flings to
the ground. Bond rocks back on his heels, suitably impressed.
THE ROLLS ROYCE
drives off. Bond turns fingering the check then walks over to
his Aston-Martin and reaches inside.
Bond’s finger presses a button on the dashboard and the grill
opens, revealing the scope. He turns a dial and the scope
glows green, shows a map of the area and blips. The blip
indicator is moving away from the center of the scope.

STEWARDESS at the base of the steps, and the two of them walk
up the steps.
AT THE STOP OF THE STEPS
Goldfinger takes off his hat as he passes a STEWARDESS at the
top of the steps and enters the passenger compartment. Oddjob
follows keeping his hat on.

BOND
Oh. Thank you very much.

Right, sir.
The Security Officer walks off.
BOND
looks back at the British United plane, which is starting to
taxi away.

The Aston-Martin navigates a bend in the road. Just then a
yellow Ford Mustang rounds a corner behind it, following.
Bond look in the rearview mirror. It shows the Mustang

he looks back.
IN THE MUSTANG
An attractive blonde is driving -- TILLY MASTERSON -- but her
expression is grim. She honks her horn.

The Mustang comes alongside the Aston-Martin.
BOND
looks over with an interested expression.

BOND
Are you all right? Here, let me
help you.
He opens the driver’s door and she steps out.
BOND
You know, you’re lucky to be alive.
TILLY
No thanks to you. You should have
pulled over further.
She crosses behind the back of her car and looks at her tires.
The rear tire is completely shredded.
TILLY
Look at them!
BOND
A double blow-out! I’ve never seen
one of these before.
59.
Tilly looks over at Bond’s car. It sits innocently on the
side of the road.
TILLY
How could new tires...?
BOND
Defect of some kind, most likely.
(sits on the edge of
her trunk)
Anyway, I’m so glad that it’s only
the car and not you. You don’t
look like the sort of girl who
should be ditched.
TILLY
Never mind that. Please take me to
the nearest garage.
BOND
Certainly.
She crosses back to the driver’s side and grabs her handbag.
Bond follows.
BOND
By the way, my name Is Bond. Would
you --
TILLY
Um, as quickly as possible.
She goes to the trunk. He shuts the driver’s door. She opens
the trunk, takes out a suitcase and sets it down as he takes a
briefcase from her back seat.

beep indicator is stationary again, near a mountainside.
Puzzled, Bond looks off as if the source is nearby, then he
looks at the scope again.
The indicator remains stationary. We hear Tilly again:

you. Appreciate it.

and starts to step out.

Oh, jump in. I’ll run you down.
TILLY
That won’t be necessary.
BOND
Well, I hate to leave you here
alone.
Bond reaches into the car and hands Tilly her suitcase.
TILLY
I can take care of myself.
BOND
Yes, I’m sure you can.

DOLLY BACK and PAN on Bond as he passes the building. The
shadows of the other men cross it. He looks back then runs
ahead.
AT THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING
Bond rounds the corner and leans back against the building,
then glances back. The other men round the corner of the
building behind him. They are laughing.
Bond runs off, passing some metal drums and a sign on a wall
that says, in German, "EINTRITT STRENGSTENS VERBOTEN" ("entry
strictly forbidden"). He quickly finds himself in a dead-end,
blocked by another building. He looks back desperately.
ALONGSIDE THE BRICK BUILDING
The two guards continue forward.
BOND
runs back past the sign, mounts a fire-escape ladder and
starts climbing up. He stops on a ledge, then climbs up to
the next level.
ON A LEDGE
Louvers on the building’s windows provide ventilation. Bond
comes around the corner, stopping on the ledge near the
louvers. He looks down to see the two guards turn the other
way. Then he turns to the louvers and looks inside.

in a Mao jacket -- approach from b.g.:
GOLDFINGER
Smuggling is an art, Mister Ling...
ANGLE ON OTHER WORKERS
They pour molten gold into an ingot mold.
GOLDFINGER (O.S.)

Steam sounds from the melted gold, drowning out the rest of
his sentence.

In this case, the bodywork of my
Rolls Royce is eighteen carat gold.
CLOSE SHOT - BOND
keeps looking in through the louvers, excited at his find.

Goldfinger escorts Ling past a dolly bearing gold ingots.
GOLDFINGER
We dismantle it here. We reduce
the gold in this special furnace,
which in turn...
(noise drowns him out)
... weighing approximately two
tons.
He raises his fist to his mouth, coughing, then leads Ling
off.
65.
GOLDFINGER
I make six trips a year to the
continent in the Rolls Royce,
Mister Ling...
OUTSIDE
Bond looks downward in satisfaction. He has solved his case.
He looks again through the louvers, then suddenly looks to the
side.
BOND’S POV - THE FACTORY ENTRANCE
Ling exits the factory then leans against a railing as
Goldfinger follows.
LING
Perhaps it would be wiser to
suspend your other activities.
GOLDFINGER
Now, Mister Ling, please assure
your principals Operation Grand
Slam will have my undivided
attention.
Goldfinger leads him down a few steps and around a corner of
the building.
