  • Bond faces off against Oddjob in the vaults of Fort Knox in GOLDFINGER (1964). The crew weren’t allowed to film in the actual gold depository in the US. Director Guy Hamilton said, “We realised it was probably really dull inside anyhow. So I said to designer Ken Adam, ‘You know, nobody’s ever been in Fort Knox, so we can design anything and nobody can prove us wrong’.”

    0:31 Seriously, if you’re in a fight with someone and throw a gold brick at him and he just smiles at you as it bounces off his ribs, you should probably start running.

      They'll probably still be playfighting in heaven right now! Either that or playing golf together whilst Oddjob keeps crushing golf balls. There was a chemistry between Bond and Oddjob in this film as you knew it was inevitable they'd be fighting. Still one of my fav fight scenes just for it's purity and Oddjob toying with his prey. Second best may have to be Bond against Dwayne's grandfather in YOLT at the beginning in Osato's headquarters. "Good evening..."

    What makes Oddjob so classic and effective is he legit looks like he could kill you and there's not a damn thing you could do to stop him. By all accounts, Harold Sakata was a legit beast and it shows. It's in his look, his swagger, the way he carries himself. It's that authenticity that really puts him over.

    Props to Harold Sakata for his cheerful smile throughout this fight. The way he is clearly just toying with Bond, could rip him in half with no effort and brushes off everything thrown at him, he brings a wonderful sense of menace to the role. The actor started out as an Olympic medalist weight lifter and professional wrestler, so he had all the right training to play the physically dangerous villain.

The bomb will get them both, and he's loyal enough to Goldfinger to give his life in order to prevent Bond from stopping Goldfinger's plan. So he doesn't have to kill Bond, just stop him from disarming the bomb. And that way, he both gratifies his sadistic desire to toy with, frustrate, and hurt Bond, and occupy himself in his last moments with something he finds amusing, rather than just sitting down and waiting for death.

    Harold Sakata led a interesting life. Born in Hawaii he is the only Bond actor to compete in an Olympics, winning a Silver Medal in weightlifting at the 1948 London Games. Had a long career as a heel wrestler under the name Tosh Togo before being cast as Oddjob. Made some money doing funny Vicks cough syrup commercials but could never really escape his Oddjob persona. Badly hurt Connery when he gave him a karate chop in the opening of this movie but stayed friends with him until his death. Died in 1982 at the age of 62 from cancer.

    Sean Connery will always be the best James Bond ever.

      Nope thats Moore.

      Agreed. Moore was a great 007, but he wasn't as ruthless as Fleming originally wrote 007 to be. On the other end of the spectrum, Dalton was too ruthless and just came off as a cold-blooded assassin. Connery was the perfect blend of swagger, charm, and ruthlessness.

      Sean connery was a great.
      And he as james Bond inspired all movies and series. And he makes a cameo in some movies and tv series

    Probably the most famous Bond scene ever made

    This fight being nearly silent really adds to it.

    The definitive 007 movie! Of course US Treasury officials wouldn't let the producers film anywhere near the real depository, but I once read when they saw the movie and this scene, they told Albert R Broccoli that their set designs were "inventive"

    Oddjob is so cool. Bond can't even hurt the guy.
    I especially like the way he disarms Bond of the metal bar. Just methodically takes the weapon off him before continuing to hurl him around like a rag doll.

  • @watcherman222
    @watcherman222 Před 2 lety +3

    Oddjob became cautious when Bond wielded the metal lever and his hat, which goes to show that just because he's tough doesn't mean it won't hurt when he takes a hit from either of those.

    I love this fight scene. Just so perfectly shot. I love scenes where Bond has to use his brain to get out of shitty situations; especially with the ticking clock in the background.

    Oddjob just smiles as he fights Bond and takes a GoldBrick to the Chest what a tank.

    By far...
    ...one of my all time favorite movie sets.

    0:07 The sound of Oddjob's hat hitting the metal is the same sound perhaps used in 'The Ipcress File' when Palmer hits that metal beam in the warehouse.

    I think Oddjob is the most loyal henchman in Bond history. Even though Goldfinger betrayed him and trapped him with the bomb, Oddjob is still fighting to ensure that his master's plan succeeds.

    I remember watching this movie with my Dad and my brother when I was a kid, and I remember the scene where Oddjob crushed a golf ball in his bare hand. My Dad said, "I don't think I'd want to make him mad!"
