I most certainly did and tbh I was disappointed at the time.

To be honest, I had never heard of this interview. Wow, this does put Sean Connery in a different light.

An actors actor imho. Even at the height of his Bond gig his performances in "The Man Who Would Be King", "The Russia House", the gritty: "The Hill", "A Fine Madness", my favorite; Pennsylvania coal mines: "The Molly Maguires"; all showed he could do it all avoiding 007 typecasting to his luminous turns in "Hunt for Red October" and the ensemble cast: "A Bridge Too Far". His outshining of star Kevin Costner in "The Untouchables" rightly earned him a Best Supporting Oscar. Connery's Bond wasn't blunt like equally enjoyable Danial Craig's, but marvelously smooth, sophisticated; the quintessential 007 to all the runner-ups... my vodka gimlets are "shaken, never stirred."

His credibility took a steep nose dive here in the UK at the time.
