EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transport us back to the 1960s, as we witness the iconic filming of the golf scene for the classic James Bond movie, "Goldfinger." The image features the inimitable Sean Connery as 007, alongside Gert Frobe as the menacing Goldfinger, and Harold Sakata, known for his wrestling persona as "Tosh Togo." Sakata plays the role of Goldfinger's caddy in this scene, which took place at the prestigious Stoke Park golf course near Stoke Poges, Buckinghamshire, on May 21, 1964. The high-stakes game between Bond and Goldfinger was rigged from the beginning, but as the caption suggests, Bond ultimately emerged victorious. The photograph captures the essence of the era, with Connery and Frobe donning plus fours, waistcoats, and hats, while Sakata wears a servant's uniform. The scene is set against the picturesque backdrop of the golf course, with Bond pointing to the ball on the tee, ready for his next shot. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the James Bond franchise and the iconic golf scene in "Goldfinger," which remains a favorite among fans of the series. It is a fascinating glimpse into the making of a classic movie moment and a reminder of the fashion and style of the 1960s.
