I often talk about how some movies make me feel old. How my sudden realisation of the time that has passed since they were released is like a Tony Scott-style smash cut to a sense of my own mortality and approaching finality. GoldenEye is the chief culprit in this.
Why? Because I can remember everything about it, clear as day. I remember the first time I saw the teaser. I remember which theater I went to see it in. The drive to that theater. Who I went with. What we talked about in the lobby before the movie. Where we ate afterwards, what we ate. Every. Single. Detail.
So the crushing realisation that it is now 30 years old feels like a gut punch.
Still, 30 years old it is, so some kind of celebration is clearly in order as it is returning to cinemas. Pierce Brosnan’s first 007 outing gets a big screen, 4K release on Friday, October 3rd.
GoldenEye was directed by Martin Campbell. Released in 1995, it was the first Bond movie of the post-Cold War-era and yet another where the critics and commentators had declared the franchise as finished (the sixth time to date), and were then proved wrong.
It was a box office smash and introduced not only a new 007, but a new M and Moneypenny while launching a modern era of Bond that continues to this day.
Sean Bean, Izabella Scorupco, Dame Judi Dench, Alan Cumming, Gottfried John, Robbie Coltrane, Joe Don Baker, Samantha Bond, Tcheky Karyo, Michael Kitchen, and Minnie Driver all co-starred.
Tickets can be purchased from 007.com.
