Goldfinger / Dr. No (1966R)
Two Bond classics on one bill. Dr. No slipped in a sly joke about its own moment: Goya's portrait of the Duke of Wellington, stolen from the National Gallery in 1961, was still missing when the film was made, so it appears in the villain's lair. The film opened in London on 5 October 1962, the very day the Beatles released their first single, Love Me Do. Goldfinger, two years later, recouped its budget in a matter of weeks, and Shirley Eaton, painted gold, made the cover of Life magazine. Together they chart how quickly Bond went from a modest British thriller to a worldwide craze.
United Artists paired films like these to keep Bondmania alive between new releases, and this 1966 re-release One Sheet is a neat snapshot of that moment. Folded, as issued, it puts two of the most important films in the series on a single sheet.
