Sean Connery Wins Supporting Actor: 60th Oscars (1988)

[@albertchin1050]

Are you saved friend? If you died tonight will you go to heaven or hell? God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save yours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for your redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. This is the Gospel which means the Good News. Isaiah 45:22-23 KJV Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. [23] I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. John 1:1-3,14 KJV In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, Isaiah 44:6 KJV Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Revelation 1:17-18 KJV And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: [18] I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

Right !!!

[@marilynpeeples4960]

IMO : Sean Connery - always - has been absolutely “drop dead” gorgeous ! AND - He continues to be so !!!! One of my favorite memories is being in the movie theatre watching “Robin Hood” (with 2 of my 4 children). As we neared the end of said movie (specifically - during the wedding of Robin & Marian) - “out of nowhere” King Richard (played by Sean). He “entourage suddenly just “appear” ! To my further surprise (in this particular scene), the king was shown to quickly dismount, but he - clearly - showed his face (to the theatre audience), & (in Sean’s EASILY recognizable voice). Then he proceeded to stop the wedding ceremony . To my children’s TOTAL embarrassment, they saw & heard their Mother inhale - SO LOUDLY that the entire group of theatre patrons heard my GASP ! They both physically appeared as if they tried to just slide under their seats, wanting “out of sight” ! You see, to my knowledge, I - never once - had EVER even seen Sean’s name in the advertisements regarding this movie ! I was - ABSOLUTELY - UNAWARE that Sean was one of the many fine actors who appeared in this movie. Had I known to expect to see him appear somewhere in this movie, my reaction - surely - would have been more “low key” ! But by me NOT Knowing (about Sean’s appearance n this movie), my children CERTAINLY should have seen that my reaction was TOTALLY understandable to them ! However, they were right to feel that my LOUD gasp was an embarrassment to them !

Rest in peace. Sean you were the voice of wisdom . Man . Awesome actors ..

Sean was making a Scottish joke, folks, about not giving the Oscar to his wife when he found out it was worth $15K. Scots are known for being notoriously tight fisted with a dollar.

With a "Dollar"? I think that's a "Pound"

Sean Connery deserved his win, but Richard Dawson should have been nominated for The Running Man.

I met Sean Connery once in a supermarket in Liverpool, he was a lovely guy we chatted for about 5mins and he asked me about the recipe I was carrying with me whilst getting my ingredients. Of course it wasn't THE Sean Connery just a guy with the same name. I don't think he won an Oscar but he now knows how to make my mother's spaghetti carbonara.
