51 Years Ago, One of the Most Unbelievable James Bond Subplots Happened (And It Was in the Books Too)

Today marks the 51st anniversary of the release of The Man with the Golden Gun in US cinemas. This was the ninth James Bond film and the second to star Roger Moore. The movie quickly became a hit, earning over $21 million domestically – which is equivalent to more than $130 million today. While it featured a memorable Bond, Christopher Lee’s portrayal of Francisco Scaramanga and the film’s storyline are considered among the most striking in the entire series.
