The Man with the Golden Gun
Directed by Guy Hamilton
Cool government operative James Bond searches for a stolen invention that can turn the sun's heat into a destructive weapon. He soon crosses paths with the menacing Francisco Scaramanga, a hitman so skilled he has a seven-figure working fee. Bond then joins forces with the swimsuit-clad Mary Goodnight, and together they track Scaramanga to a Thai tropical isle hideout where the killer-for-hire lures the slick spy… From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →I'll admit that I haven't seen all of the James Bond movies...but I just learned they used a Slide Whistle sound effect for the car flip scene in The Man With The Golden Gun. Based on this knowledge, I propose every James Bond film should have at least one slide whistle.

Britt had wanted to be in a Bond film since the mid 60s; the directors were persuaded to give her the role after seeing her in The Wicker Man (1973). #BrittEkland #JamesBond

Born with dwarfism, after working as an artist, painter and photographer, he finally ventured into acting. #HervéVillechaize

But my favourite thing about the episode is that it reminds me of the existence of her The Man with the Golden Gun, which - if you know nothing of the movie it comes from - is a spectacular string of single entendres about a high-charging gigolo.

neutral · AI labelView post →We’re convinced people remember The Man with the Golden Gun fondly for two reasons: 1. They unknowingly condense the entire movie in their head to that one scene where Christopher Lee is talking 2. They forgot everything else, like the fucking slide whistle going BWOOOOP during the big stunt jump
negative · AI labelView post →9 - The Man with the Golden Gun. Strange film. Entertaining enough. Christopher Lee is amazing! Roger Moore seems at ease with the role. The American cop turning up from L&LD was just ridiculous and didn’t work and too long on the chase sequences. 6.5/10

positive · AI labelView post →9. The Man With The Golden Gun A movie with a few really fucking good elements (Christopher Lee on the whole, obviously), combined with some of the most confounding creative choices I've seen in a while Like it's not even a dogshit movie or anything, it's just kinda boring until it isn't
neutral · AI labelView post →If it's one of the Bond films, that narrows it down to four: Goldfinger (1964) Diamonds Are Forever (1971) Live and Let Die (1973) The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) Looking at the hat, hair and mustache I think we can eliminate Goldfinger. Definitely a 70s vibe.

Such a brutal write-up! "The Man With The Golden Gun Shoots Blanks!” 😂😂😂

In the film he played a naval lieutenant, and was Sorak in 'The Horns of Nimon'. Appearing uncredited was Sonny Caldinez, who had been Kemel in 'The Evil of the Daleks' but more often an Ice Warrior.
