Sean Connery was given The American Film Institute’s annual lifetime achievement award at a ceremony last night. It is the sinlge highest honor the film institute can bestow. Can you think of many guys who would deserve it more? The folks over at Yahoo News give us this:
Directors Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, and actors Harrison Ford, Andy Garcia and Mike Myers were among the stars who cheered on the legendary actor Thursday at the ceremony at the Kodak Theatre.
Myers wore a tuxedo jacket and a kilt to honor the Scottish actor. “Men want to be him, women want him, and in my case I both want to be him and want him,” Myers joked.
Just for fun, here are my all time favorite Connery Films:
1) The Highlander (The Original ONLY)
2) The Hunt For Red October
3) From Russia With Love
4) The Untouchables
5) The Rock (mock me all you want)
