Our expert's notes

A script used in the production of the James Bond classic The Man with the Golden Gun. The ninth film in the franchise’s history, Bond must duel with the famed assassin Francisco Scaramanga (Christopher Lee), a marksman of great renown with a gun made of solid gold.
Bound by a script clip at the top with a pink card cover on the front and rear, this production-used script was made specifically for the export of the film to other territories and was used in the process of dubbing and creating subtitles. The script is undated with credits to producers Harry Saltzman and “Albert R. Boccoli” (a misspelling of Cubby Broccoli’s surname), with the first page highlighting technical details such as aspect ratio, projection speed, run time and the amount of footage to ensure dubbing and subtitling was applied at the correct points in the film. The name of the film is written in marker along the script’s “spine”.

Within the script itself, there are over two hundred pages detailing specific action and dialogue being shown on screen, all matched to specific time coding for absolute accuracy, and all printed single-sided on blue and pink paper. Each colour change within the script signifies a change in projection reel, with twelve reels accounted for in all.

A fantastic and rare piece of movie history, the script shows signs of production use with creases and minor tears to the script’s card cover but remains in an overall very good condition, measuring 21.5cm x 34cm x 4cm (8.5“ x 13.5“ x 1.5“).
