You would be amazed at how many Scots who chose to leave want Independence and the right to vote for it even though they do not live here, pay taxes here, or contribute to society here. If it means that much then get your arses back here to make it work Connery had a good innings. Personally, my favourite film of his was The Hunt for Red October. Great film and he played a great part Quote Alcohol. Sex. Tobacco. Drugs. Chocolate. Meh! NOTHING in this world is as addictive as an Evora +0. It's not for babies!

Jacques 959 Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 In my humble view he was a good actor and I generally likes the movies in which he played a role. Actually many movies. I do like that the 007 movies are not all the same, but to me, Sean Connery was the best one. Never like the present one, as he lost the elegance and became a hard hitting bully with a licence. And the later movies lost the aspect of super villans and exchanged them for more local criminals or whatever. Thank you for all of your acting abilities Sean. Rest in Peace and I think there may be more peacefull where you are now, than down here, where many seems to be taken by all sorts of directions. Kind regards, Jacques Quote Nobody does it better - than Lotus Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Blanchard 1,657 Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 Sean was a great actor and I hope he rests in peace. But Roger Moore was clearly the best Bond. The best cardboard acting and cars from the franchise. 1 Quote Mark www.lotusespritturbo.com Link to post Share on other sites
