    Default Sean Connery Passed Away - Age 90

    Sad days. He lived one heck of an amazing life. Man was a true legend. Many years ago I accidentally got to play golf with him and his publicist here in Colorado. On the first tee when I walked up I saw him and I laughed inside and said to myself, "Man, that guy could be Sean Connery's twin". Only took me to about the third hole when I heard him talking and went, "Wait...what?" Really serious, but laid back guy. Rest in Peace Mr. Connery, you will be missed.

    While he'll always be remembered as James Bond.

    We like him in The Wind & the Lion, as Sharif Raisuli

    Same for Highlander, The Man who Would be King, Hunt for Red October and A Bridge too Far

    Besides Bond, of course, another role of his I liked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1CF7p9z-0o

    ...and the fact that a couple of my other favorites were in the movie, Quaid and Postlethwaite, didn't hurt, either.

    My favorite actor. Great in any of his roles. A definite loss to us all.

    Sad news.

    He was an amazing entertainer and the best Bond in my eyes. He will be missed.
