The Man with the Golden Gun

Another Bond film today, and Beth has maintained her enthusiasm. I always rather liked “The Man with the Golden Gun”. It is critically viewed as being one of the weaker films in the series, but for me Christopher Lee is a joy on screen. (He more than makes up for the deeply irritating Britt Ekland).

The oriental locations and the then-trendy kung-fu work quite well, and Beth was very taken by the reappearance of Sheriff J. W. Pepper, and by the midget butler Nick Nack.
