General notes (source: "James Bond DVD Guide" by Richard Crowther - Zetaminor)
"Goldfinger was cut by the BBFC before its theatrical debut, with the removal of a shot of Bonita getting out of the bath at the start of the film, the shortening of the sequence in which a thug is electrocuted in that same bath, and the shortening of the scene of Bond and Jill Masterson on a bed."
This is the version available worldwide - hence listed as "no cuts".
