Neither does \u003ci\u003eGoldfinger\u003c\/i\u003e (1964), perhaps the classic Bond film and undoubtedly the beginning of 1960s Bondmania.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIncorporating much unpublished material including photographs and the original typed screenplay, \u003ci\u003eThe Goldfinger Files\u003c\/i\u003e is an illustrated history of the film's iconic scenes shot in Switzerland's Urseren Valley, crowned by the car chase with Bond's gadget-laden Aston Martin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo maximise publicity for the film, its makers took the unorthodox step of inviting journalists and photographers onto the set, resulting in a wealth of photos including those by Hans Gerber, Josef Ritler and Erich Kocian. These give us an insider's view of the famous sequence — Goldfinger's Rolls-Royce on the dusty mountain road, Tilly Masterson's failed assassination attempt on him, the chase between her Mustang and Bond's Aston Martin, and finally, Goldfinger's smelting factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDozens of private pictures revealing candid, behind-the-scenes moments complete this documentary flipbook of golden-age James Bond culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47598589968620,"sku":"9783958297463","price":85.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/a9a19c8f89e09a88f375ea67f5b64201.jpg?v=1778025803","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/steffen-appel-and-peter-waelty-the-goldfinger-files-by-steffen-appel-9783958297463","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
