Such a sexy Scotsman.....

How could you not love Sean Connery?  I love the fact that he's both feisty and stubborn.  AND that he has a kickass scottish accent!! 

It's not that hard to believe that he's been just about everything in his life.  He was a body builder in the fifties (and I've seen the pictures to prove it.)  I don't think was ever a better Bond than him, he is super suave and has the swagger to match.  Not to mention that he looks damn good in a suit!



He is never one to be typecast though, as you can tell from some of the varied movie roles he has taken on.  Who else could be Indiana Jones' father or pair up with Nicolas Cage in "The Rock"?   I've long felt that Finding Forrester was one of his best roles.  If you haven't seen it yet, hurry up and do so.....

I also love that he is stands adamantly behind the things that he believes in.   His two tattoos are celebrating his parents and his beloved Scotland.   He fiercely supports the idea of Scottish independance and is very vocal about it.  

Although he is getting up there in age, I truly hope he decides not to throw in the towel on acting.  If he does, he'll just have to live on in our hearts.  Throbbing hearts, that is......
