Sean Connery is someone that when you ask a stranger what you picture when you think of him, you can kind of know what age range they are.
For me, it's The Last Crusade and Entrapment.

I love him in Red October too, as well as Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. The Untouchables is my favorite De Palma and Connery has a lot to do with that. He was a delight.
Anyone else have a hard time mentally connecting him in the late 80s-90s to the guy in the Bond films? They seem like vastly different people to me. Granted, I have seen basically zero of his 70s work.

Weirdly enough, wife and I have been watching jeopardy on Netflix for the last month. Hes such a sly ass to the doucheier contestants, and more so to the ones that return. They seem to not notice. Hes hilarious.Quoting Morris Schæffer (view post)
