    The first thing we did going into Covid lockdown was buy all 24 of the Bond films on demand and we spent the first 3 months working our way through them... Connery was the MAN, and will always be the TRUE 007, even though they made him drive an Aston Martin

    GREAT actor... I really liked his lesser known leading rolls like 'The Hill' and the 'Anderson Tapes'

    Sad day Mr. Bond...

    Me too... and that he had a sense of humor about some of the characters he played. Like Zed in Zardoz.

    My favorite Connery film was with Michael Caine, The Man Who Would Be King. Kipling's prescient warning about messing around in "Kafiristan" (Afghanistan).

    Lived 90 good years. RIP.

    Probably the only time in cinema history a man's life was both saved and forever changed, by a necklace.
