It would certainly be hard to pick a favorite movie role that Sean Connery played. Among my favorites would of course be as James bond and as Marco Ramius in The Hunt for Red October. Sean also played a memorable part in Highlander as Juan Sánchez-Villalobos Ramírez. In fact, Sean Connery played a commanding role in every part he played.


Actor Mike Myers honoring Sean Connery.






Rest in Peace.

Nice article in the "FAZ" (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Gogle translate):

https://translate.google.com/transla...-17029858.html

"[...] in retrospect you could almost say that the role of James Bond owes more to its actor Connery than the other way around."

R.I.P. Sir!

Besides several films that already were mention here, I watched a few times The Hill, a good war drama film!
And like Robin and Marian and The Name of the Rose
