Pussy Galore

Pussy Galore was the most famous name of a Bond Girl. Played by Honor Blackman, the superbad female pilot appeared in Goldfinger (1964).

Although the book is more forthright about Pussy’s sexuality, the film still hints at her being a lesbian: “I am immune to your charms”. This provides a unique challenge for Bond, who can usually get his way with any woman. Meanwhile, Goldfinger has a plan to steal all the gold in Fort Knox in order to bring about economic collapse in the West. Part of the plan is to use Pussy Galore’s Flying Circus pilots to fly over Fort Knox and spray a brand of nerve agent over the unlucky security presence there. Goldfinger and his henchmen would then clear out all of America’s gold reserves. However, Pussy was so enamoured with Bond that she then helped the British spy to defeat Goldfinger.
