Our Man Flint Action Sequence

  • This is my favorite action sequence from the 1966 American spy flick parody, Our Man Flint. The reason is simply the combination of James Coburn, the antithesis of the Sean Connery model in style and looks for such a film, and the wonderful Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack. The former performs most of the action in the sequence, including the 4-story latter climb that is done with the actor's trademark lanky grace. The latter should definitely be praise for coming up with splendid tracks for the film that both mimiced John Barry's OO7 music, but made them distinctly his own.

    the guitar riff when Flint climbs the ladder is perhaps the best background music ever! And you can really tell it's Coburn climbing the ladder, it's awesome.

    👏 BRAV-OOOOO ☆☆ JERRY GOLDSMITH'S ☆☆ truly thrilling Kick-Ass Music. Yes, that guitar riff is impressive but no less than ☆ Shelly Manne's ☆ magnificent drums!
    [ And we dearly doubt, for insurance purposes, ◇ Mr. Coburn ◇ would've been allowed to climb that scaffold, tho we've sure he complained like hell 😂 about it! ]
    《 Also, can you imagine ANY contemporary director who would've filmed 🎥 that climb with just the tracking shot and ♤ Goldsmith's ♤ music ? 🤔 Outside of ♧ Michael Mann ♧, we can't. 》

    Superb action sequence, I have this score on CD as well as In like flint, the piece is called 'youre a foolish man Mr Flint' the only section missing is when Flint enters the double doors to fight MalcoIm Rodney, which is a short cue but bad ass.

    I wish Austin Powers had given Flint more props than the ringtone. This is really masterful tongue-in-cheek parody of the Bond genre.

    Yes, it is true that Coburn in real life, was a student of Bruce Lee in the art of Jeet Kune Do. It is very surprising to see elements of this sequence clearly being emulated in the Lee 1973 film "Enter The Dragon", with the underground cavern fight scenes and the metal false hand; both ideas of which were clearly used by Lee to the next level. Obviously Lee had seen this movie somewhere and decided to use many elements in his own film!

    I'm not even sure I'd call it a parody - Flint was to American class what Bond was to English. Each of them took classic virtues of the country and played them to extreme.

      Coburn was not happy about the ballet jump everything he did possible but that and he said it put him off making any more Flint films.

    That bad guy is pretty tough. He survived being electrocuted fell down a great distance and still got right back up! However if it had been Bruce Lee that delivered that Karate chop to neck he would have died of a broken neck. (Provided the script writers put that in. LOL!!!)

      Hopefully not, David.
      In the current film climate and the fact that the aforementioned remade titles sucked, the powers that be would cast a woke wuss actor to play Derek Flint; one of his four Playmates would have to be a guy;.the marvelous 82 --function cigar lighter ( 83 if you wish to light a cigar) would possibly be banned so as to discourage tobacco use ; pronoun usage would no doubt be enforced; and Flint's libertarian bent would be extinquished to make way for Progressive tirades and sloganeering.
      If these conditions could be absent or even better, eliminated,.the remake could be a lot of fun!
