By way of coincidence, I saw Goldfinger this weekend, it was released in September of 1964, right at the height of Beatlemania and The Beatles even get quoted in the film, just not very politely:
Bond:
"My dear girl, there are some things that just aren't done, such as drinking Dom Perignon '53 above the temperature of 38 degrees Fahrenheit. That's just as bad as listening to the Beatles without earmuffs".
Which made me laugh out loud. At this stage of their career, of course, they were still viewed as a 'dumb boy band' by the 'people with taste', just as you see nowadays how we all view pretty much any new group of boy bands as an opportunity to debase the tastes of 'the youth', particularly with regards to female fandom.
And had they ended around this time then this is the view of them that likely would have stayed through the ages. But they didn't. And great proof of just how much their music managed to break into every strata of society, Live and Let Die's 1973 Bond Song was made by Paul and Linda McCartney.
While Bond movies are great at keeping references going and never missing the opportunity to self-reference, I was surprised they didn't re-reference that initial line in Live and Let Die by having Roger Moore say something like "Hey, these guys aren't so bad after all" or "This wine's matured like a vintage Beetle" or something.
Bond movies are also a great source of music, another factor which made them stand out from the crowd and another reason why they are just so damn rewatchable. You can just listen to them and feel thrilled:
This movie even produced one of Louis Armstrong's most famous songs, and you don't get much better in the music world that a bit of Loius:
And it's amazing how many people don't even realise this song was written specifically for a Bond movie, the tune being composed by John Barry, who also composed the above Bond Theme (and eleven others) and was written by Hal David (of raindrops keep falling on my head fame).
