Deborah Moore, who played a secretary, is the daughter of Roger Moore, who played James Bond in seven films in the official series.
"Goldeneye" is the nickname of James Bond creator Ian Fleming's beach-front house in Jamaica where (between 1952 and 1964) he wrote the James Bond novels and short stories.
"Goldeneye" was also the code name of a contingency plan that the Allies devised in the event of a Nazi invasion of Spain. This plan was concocted in part by Ian Fleming himself, as an SIS agent.
Actor Christoph Waltz played a German spy in this biopic television movie Goldeneye (1989) about James Bond creator Ian Fleming. Later, Waltz portrayed the arch-villain in the James Bond film 'Spectre' (2015). Waltz, in his early career, once starred in a movie, his feature film debut, called "Fire and Sword" (Tristan and Isolde (1981)), alongside Vladek Sheybal, who had played the villain Kronsteen in From Russia with Love (1963). In that movie, Sheybal's character was an Agent of S.P.E.C.T.R.E.
This movie about James Bond creator Ian Fleming was made and first released about six years before the similarly titled James Bond movie 'GoldenEye' (1995).
