USA - Goldfinger screening at the Block Cinema, IL, Thursday night

The "Block Cinema" in the Mary and Leigh Block Museum of Art in Evanston, IL, will be hosting a special screening of the 1964 James Bond film "Goldfinger" as part of their Production Design series.

Film: "Goldfinger" (1964)
Location: Block Cinema, Evanston, IL
Date: Thursday 17th February 2005
Time: 20:00

007 (Sean Connery) is at it again—this time fighting international bullion dealer Auric Goldfinger (Gert Frobe), the man with the Midas touch. Goldfinger is one villain you don’t want to mess with, especially because his quirky sidekick Oddjob kills women by painting their entire bodies gold. With Fort Knox and entire national economies at stake, Bond must defeat the villain’s Operation Grand Slam. Ken Adam’s production design, with its impossible gadgets and diabolically huge, coiled lasers, sets the scene for Connery’s over-the-top performance and his dry throwaway lines.
