Goldfinger - The Golden Girl - While Bond has won over Jill Masterson, was he naïve enough not to think that Goldfinger would retaliate? We assume they went out to dinner, as he had suggested, and then back to his room to make love and have fun. This clip picks up when Bond is recovering from being knocked out by Oddjob. When he comes to, he walks from the kitchen area where he was retrieving more champaign to the bed area.
The shot is filmed perfectly as we see Bond walk in front of a mirror and we can see Bond from both sides – shocked at what he is seeing. Jill Masterson is covered in gold paint lying on her stomach across the bed. A strategically placed pillow blocks us from seeing her butt, which would not have been on screen in 1964, especially for the equivalent of a PG (parental guidance) audience rating. In the book Jill Masterton – a slight spelling difference - is painted with gold as well.
We know it’s Bond’s room because when he picks up the phone, the person at the desk says, “Yes, Mr. Bond.” He calls Felix and tells her the girl is dead.

Goldfinger and Bond Golfing at Stoke Poges
Goldfinger Golf Scene
Goldfinger & Bond at Stoke Poges - This clip is about 5 ½ minutes long, but it highlights what will become the mission for the rest of the film. It establishes Bond as a person of interest for Goldfinger since he has access to some rare gold bars. This clip is not the sharpest in terms of quality, but it was the best we could find at this time on YouTube. This clip reinforces the tension and adverse relationship they have. As Bond wins the round and the 5,000 pounds that the gold bar was worth. That's the bet Goldfinger made with Bond after he saw the gold bar, and Goldfinger is not happy. Once again, you will notice Goldfinger is wearing a golden sweater as he plays his round of golf with Bond. He is almost always wearing something gold throughout the film. Once you pay attention to it, you will look for it! We know that Goldfinger likes to win – and here he loses to Bond. And he must write him a check for the 5,000 pounds. Goldfinger’s Rolls is parked in front of the main building at the club. Here, he directs Oddjob to demonstrate the capabilities of his hat, knocking the head off a statue some distance away. We now know that Oddjob is physically strong, but has a hat for a potent weapon, which we will see used in key scenes later in the film.SpyMovieNavigator On Location at Stoke Poges Club, where these scenes were filmed
ON THE FILMING LOCATION: On a recent trip to London, SpyMovieNavigator took a trek out to Stoke Park, which is where they filmed these golf scenes. We actually had lunch at the restaurant - and it was fun - a high tea! Then, we walked out by the 18th hole, got some great photos, This is where Goldfinger concedes the game to Bond (after Bond replaced Goldfinger's ball with the wrong one - "stick rules!" After that, we walked in front of the main building where the Rolls was parked, and where Bond, Oddjob and Goldfinger met after the match. There, Goldfinger writes the check to Bond. And here, in the film, is where Oddjob demonstrates his skills with his hat - knocking off the head of a statue. Here are a couple of pictures including the driveway in front where Goldfinger's Rolls is, with Bond, Oddjob and Goldfinger, Dan in front of Stoke, and Dan and Tom in front of the famous 18th hole!
