The Sound of Music
"The Sound of Music" portrays the lead character as a stereotypical motherly figure and the somewhat "ideal housewife" due to her maternal instinct and her connection with the children which is visible in this sequence. She is depicted as the "Madonna" and in turn is still considered to be inferior to the male counter part due to patriarchy and power of males during the time.
Goldfinger
The depiction of the woman here, completely juxtaposes that of "The Sound of Music" as her revealing clothing insinuates her "whore" like character, despite being portrayed differently she is still objectified when Bond intimately leans over her, without her objection thus making her a victim of the "male gaze"
