Stars may rise and fall, executives come and go, but the studios remain forever â at least thatâs the accepted wisdom in town. For this reason, the impending sale of fabled Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (which includes the equally celebrated United Artists among its divisions) has spawned much soul-searching in Hollywood - and the Egyptian Theatre will be running a series of classic MGM films to bring back memories of the golden age.

GOLDFINGER, 1964, MGM/UA, 111 min. Dir. Guy Hamilton. "Do you expect me to talk, Goldfinger?" "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die â¦" cackles homicidal villain Auric Goldfinger (Gert Frobe), as he prepares to re-arrange 007âs personal equipment with a laser beam, in what is widely considered to be the best of the classic Sean Connery Bond pictures. Co-starring the saucy Honor Blackman as Bondâs nemesis-turned-partner Pussy Galore, with Shirley Eaton as the gold-painted girl, Harold Sakata as mute assassin Oddjob, and the venerable home office team of Bernard Lee, Lois Maxwell and Desmond Llewelyn. Terrific production design by Ken Adam, and cinematography by Ted Moore (FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, THUNDERBALL).
