The Man with the Golden Gun (film) Broccoli and Harry Saltzman, with Saltzman selling his 50% stake in Danjaq, LLC, the parent company of Eon Productions, after the release of the film. In London, a golden bullet with James Bond's code "007" etched into its surface is received by MI6. It is believed that it was sent by the famed assassin Francisco Scaramanga, who uses a golden gun, to intimidate the agent. Because of the perceived threat to the agent's life, M relieves Bond of a mission revolving around the work of the solar energy scientist named Gibson, thought to be in possession of information crucial to
The Man with the Golden Arm (novel) he received, and the liberties taken by the filmmakers (which included an entirely different ending from the novel). When photographer and friend Art Shay asked Algren to pose below the film's marquee, he is reported to have said "What does that movie have to do with me?" Leonard Cohen used imagery from "The Man with the Golden Arm" in "The Stranger Song", from his first album, "Songs of Leonard Cohen" (1967): "O you've seen that man before / his golden arm dispatching cards / but now it's rusted from the elbows to the finger."
