A Look At Sean Connery
Author: Boris DeVriesSean Connery is one actor who has always managed to delivery worthy performance in any role. He has such natural charisma. Any character seems real just by his presence on the screen. He has managed to pull off several roles with remarkable performances. No matter what kind of movie or how worthy the movie is, Connery always manages to bring something special.
A worthy example of this is his role as James Bond. It's not to say that in his portrayals of Bond there was not a lot of cheesy stuff happening. With names with like Pussy Galore and Odd Job what can you expect? Sean Connery makes James Bond a serious character. However when you watch others portray Bond the cheese oozes off the screen. The other actors can not pull off the cheese like Connery.
Much later in his career he was in Highlander. I do not think anyone really thought that movie was going to be as enormous as it was. Connery only had a minor role in the film, but that was enough to get a lot of individuals to see it. Highlander is a worthy science fiction movie. Connery's performance is just another notch on his belt.
A more recent film in which he gave another extraordinary performance is The Rock. The Rock is not one of cinema's classics and don't forget you also get Nicholas Cage. Again Sean Connery's presence on the screen adds realism to the situations. You can ignore the inferior dialogue and premises and just enjoy his acting.
He is one of the only male actors in the history of Hollywood that has been able to be just as believable in action roles in his older age as he was in his younger age. A lot of actors have tried that and not have much success.
