The Man With the Golden Gun

A great movie with high-profile actor Christopher Lee appearing as the villain, Scaramanga. He is very scary and totally callous - charching $1,000,000 per kill. It is interesting to see Christopher Lee in this film as he is in fact a cousin of Ian Fleming's and would have been very familiar with the Bond world prior to the films being made!

Of course, living in Sweden, it is very nice to see two talented Swedish actresses in this movie: Britt Ekland as Mary Goodnight and Maud Adams as Andrea Anders. Miss Goodnight is, according to me, quite a lame character, but I like Miss Anders a lot!

I also like Nick Nack, who is a very cool and very funny character - it's nice to see him actually be honest about wanting someone to kill Scaramanga. Nick Nack is not aftraid of his employer, and desperately wants to get his hands on Scaramanga's money! Scaramanga himself is so confident, he doesn't even reprimand Nick Nack.

I must say, one of my favourite moments in the movie is when Bond changes places with Scaramanga's dummy at the end ... a smart move by Bond, proving fatal for Scaramanga!
