>For a Sean Connery movie it was bizarre

Buddy, if you're trying to tell me it's weirder than Darby O'Gill and the Little People, I am going to need more than Sir Connery in a ponytail.

Check out Zardoz: Connery with a ponytail, a pistol in hand, wearing thigh-high boots and a mankini.

And a giant flying stone head that vomits guns.

I am not joking.

Oh, I didn't need you to say more than Zardoz to bring that beautiful memory back.
Yeah, with a movie like that in his credits, it seems a miracle he was ever selected to be James Bond. His radar for picking great movies was equally bad as it was good.
Ha, yeah. Fortunately for him, Connery did James Bond first, then later did Zardoz and Highlander.
I think he was one of those people that was acting to keep the lights on well after he was set for life. It's a mindset, especially depending on how you grew up.
He had to pay his bills
You're the man now, dog!
