SUNDAY AUGUST 25 TRIPLE 007! ($15/$12)
GOLDFINGER 2:00, 9:05 55th ANNIVERSARY
The third James Bond film adaptation was the one in which all the classic 007 elements came into play, mapping a template that has endured for decades. Joining the inimitable Sean Connery is Gert Frobe as the titular madman, Honor Blackman as Pussy Galore, and Harold Sakata as Oddjob. Composer John Barry sites this as his favourite Bond score, the theme song belted out by Shirley Bassey. (Dir: Guy Hamilton, 1964, 112 min, 4K DCP)
+ ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE 4:05 50th ANNIVERSARY!
George Lazenby’s sole outing as 007, where Bond finds love with adventurous contessa Tracy Di Vicenzo (Diana Rigg) as they battle the evil Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Telly Savalas), who’s launching his most calamitous scheme yet: a germ warfare plot that could kill millions! Staying faithful to Ian Fleming’s novel, long-time Bond film editor Peter R. Hunt directed what is widely regarded as one of the most impressive entries in the series. (1969, 143 min, 4K DCP ‘Scope)
+ MOONRAKER 6:45 40th ANNIVERSARY!
Agent 007 (Roger Moore) blasts into orbit in this action-packed adventure that takes him to Venice, Rio De Janeiro and outer space. When Bond investigates the hijacking of an American space shuttle, he and beautiful CIA agent Holly Goodhead (Lois Chiles) are soon locked in a life-or-death struggle against Hugo Drax (Michael Lonsdale), a power-mad industrialist bent on Earthly genocide. The most overtly humorous and over-the-top of Moore’s 007 stint features spectacular Oscar-nominated visual effects and the return of Richard Kiel as Jaws. (Dir: Lewis Gilbert, 1979, 127 min, 4K DCP ‘Scope)
The Aston Martin Owners Club is proud have on display two "Bond" cars for the afternoon screenings: the 1969 Aston Martin DBS from "OHMSS" and the 2008 Aston Martin DBS V12 "Quantum of Solace".
