Disco Stu 10152 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 RIP what a legend I’m going to listen to a few scores for Connery movies today, starting with my favorite score for one of his Bonds, You Only Live Twice. I’ll definitely include The Untouchables and Last Crusade as well. Link to post Share on other sites

crumbs 8009 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 Another legend of cinema lost. I've never seen the Connery Bond films but will absolutely check them out now. How I wish we had the Father/Son reunion cue from The Last Crusade, one of my favourite renditions of that theme. I suspect that score will be getting plenty of listens in the next few days. RIP.

Chen G. 1900 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 Just saw it. Horrible news. For an actor so identified with a tough-guy persona, he also was wonderful in more sensitive roles, as well as having an absolutely wonderful timing for comedy; what a combination. Will be sorely missed. Link to post Share on other sites
