Movie Clips: Goldfinger (1964) 'Goldfinger's Last Flight'

Source:Movie Clips- left to right: James Bond (played by Sean Connery) & Pussy Galore (played by Honor Blackman). Perhaps your eyesight is keen enough to tell who is who on your own. 

"CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Thinking that the adventure is over, Bond (Sean Connery) is surprised to find that his inflight service will be provided by Goldfinger (Gert Frobe) and a loaded gun." 


If you are familiar with these action/comedy films and action/comedy TV shows, the bad guy or girl, is never really dead. (Exceptions to every rule) And no, I'm not talking about in real-life. They are just dead until they make some miracle reappearance later on, that's explained in their next appearance. 

Mr. Goldfinger (played by Gert Frobe) should've been dead at the Battle of Fort Knox (ha, ha) between his men and the U.S, Army at that base. Goldfinger is not your average criminal. (Also in the news: the Rolls Rolls Royce is not your average car) So of course Goldfinger can't be dead, until the last scene of the film, unless they just want to show Bond and his Pussy in a love scene making out. But this is James Bond, so they can't end a great film with something predictable. There has to be some final battle where just the good people survive. 

Another thing about this scene, is how adorable Honor Blackman was. As soon as Goldfinger pulls the genius play of firing a gun in a small airplane, (which is as intelligent stepping in front of a moving bus with your eyes closed) they go to Pussy, Galore (played by Honor Blackman) who really was a damn good pilot in this film (as she said) trying to prevent the plane from crashing. And the first thing I thought of, was Fly Baby, Fly. Which is exactly what she was.
