Sean Connery was in some the most iconic movies of all time. He played across legendary actors such as Audrey Hepburn, John Wayne, Richard Burton, Loren Bacall, Ingrid Bergman, John Gielgud, Anthony Perkins, Albert Finney, Candice Bergen, Michael Caine, Christopher Plummer, Gene Hackman, Ryan O’Neal, Harrison Ford, Donald Sutherland, Dustin Hoffman and more.
He’s played kings, cops, criminals, dragons, military leaders and teachers. His career has left a lasting impression on so many people. More people try to do impressions of him than any other actor.
The Scottish actor died today, October 31st, early in the morning in the Bahamas. He acted for over 60 years and played in over 90 movies and tv shows. He started in 1954 with Let’s Make Up (uncredited) and ended his career in 2003 with The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. He had his share of great movies and not-so-great, but he was always enjoyable to watch.
2020 had taken it’s share of Hollywood Legends (Kirk Douglas, Olivia de Havilland, Chadwick Boseman, Brian Dennehy, Max von Sydow, Ian Holm, Wilford Brimley, Carl Reiner, Helen Reddy, Regis Philbin, James Lipton and many more). However, it’s hard to think that these legends would want us to be discouraged. Can you think of a better way to keep going that with a thumbs up from the legend himself?
