Honor Blackman was not well known over here, but she was well thought of in Britain. R.I.P.

It's shame more baseball fans don't know of Al Kaline. He uttered the immortal line to a young fan who yelled at him that he wasn't half as good as Mickey Mantle, "Son, nobody is half as good as Mickey Mantle".

Crap I didnt know Kaline died.
Older people will remember the line “ You look like you had a date with Al Kaline“.

Ah, r.i.p, Ms Blackman.

Odd, I just rewatched Goldfinger a few days ago. The print could have used some restoration; 55 years is a long time for celluloid. (Though it could have been digitized a while ago, and if it was, they did a crap job, or the print had deteriorated too much.)

They restored it for the blu-ray version in 2009. Looks pretty good on that format.

Goldfinger Blu-ray Release Date March 24, 2009 - https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Goldfinger-Blu-ray/3755/
