A Bridge Too Far is the second movie about Operation Market Garden. The first one was called Theirs is the Glory from 1946. My Grandfather jumped for that movie, since he was a Paratrooper in WWII and was in that battle. He also jumped in Normandy, but was blinded on his way down, but was rescued by a French girl, then he was in Southern France and after that battle, him and the 12 men that were left alive in his Company went to England, where they met King George VI and danced with Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret. He was also in the Battle of the Bulge and he also was one of the few Americans that trained to be a British Commando.

I was born in 1990, just turned 30, but I'm proud to say that I saw all the movies you mentioned. I'm a huge fan of Sean Connery. I want to mention another cool movie from my childhood, The Rock, from 1996, with Nicolas Cage. Great action movie from the '90ties. It's sad to say goodbye to a man wich has been a sort of grampa for many many people like me all around the world, but is reassuring to know that all of them, all of us, will never forget him.

When I heard that Sean Connery died I was expecting this video. However, you have exceeded even my expectations. This is your best effort. Couple of things. My own father died of Alzheimers in May, 2012. I think about my Dad every single day. Had a physical last week. Everything went pretty well, except my PSA was a little high. I’ve been referred to a urologist, so we’ll see how that goes. Let’s be honest, my friend. This isn’t really about shaving, something we enjoy, but about life. I notice that with several of the shave channels I watch, but especially yours, so don’t sell yourself short. Thank you.

Hi Ken. Spectacular shave. In fact, I believe it qualifies as one of your best. Sean Connery has always been my quintessential Bond, and that shall remain. To this day, and in my opinion, not even Daniel Craig compares to Sean Connery's Bond, a sophisticated debonair with humor and quick wit. Sean Connery oozed and exuded confidence, good looks, charm and intelligence with humor. Rejoice, for the believers shall reside in God's Kingdom when we finally go home, as we're simply visiting down here. Praise be to God. Amen.

Sean Connery was not only nominated for the Untouchables, he WON the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in The Untouchables! The man was truly a talent like no other and there will never be anyone else like him! He was the original and very best James Bond (DC is a close second for me personally) and he was the absolute EPITOME of classic masculinity and class! The Hunt for Red October and The Rock were probably his best and most notable performances from the 1990’s. I remember the Rock was the very first movie I ever saw him in back in 1996 when I was a young boy. Goldfinger was the very first Bond film I saw him in back in 1997 immediately after getting home from seeing Tomorrow Never Dies in the movie theater. At 8 years old I was made a James Bond fan and a Connery fan for life! We will all miss him and treasure our fondest memories of his work for the rest of our lives. May he Rest In Peace now 🙏🏻

My grandfather was a paratrooper who was dropped into Arnhem for Operation Market Garden. He never spoke of the war, but I remember watching "A Bridge To Far" with him on TV, and he said it was pretty accurate. He was declared missing in action, and had to hide in a barn for quite sometime. In the early '90's we attended a Christening in his home village, and we saw his name on the Roll of Honour engraved on the wall of the church. Apparently no-one was told he was found!

My favourite Sean Connery film was 'The Hill'. I seem to recall reading years ago that he regarded it as one of his best pieces of work. It's black and white and is set in a British Army Military Prison in North Africa during World War Two. Quite a low key film. I believe he drew on his experiences in the Royal Navy for the part.

Subjects like old fashion wet shaving and a certain Scottish gentleman called Sean. Your channel truly lights up the sometimes so cold, inhuman, social media, and you demonstrate that we humans still can interact via respectful and stimulating conversations. Thank you for this and God bless you and your loved ones, best Kensurfs!
