Sean Connery really irritates me

Dude, its Sean Connery, he ALWAYS uses that accent. He played a russian sub captain with a scottish accent for gods sake.


Its one of those things everyone realizes, but are willing to overlook. Like in TV shows when average guys end up married/dating really hot women that they would never get in real life.

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

It might be hard to believe that Connery's character would still have a Scottish accent,but it is possible.
If he lived with people with Scottish accents and visited Scotland often he would not lose his accent to a great extent.
Connery,while not living in Scotland for many years,is a Scottish Nationalist and I think his little speech about his family having to migrate to improve their lives is a political point he wanted to make.

I actually live in Scotland so get fed up with this man preaching to us about our politics without actually living here.
He lives in Spain I understand.

Another point would be that there are thousands if not millions of Americans who claim to be "IRISH" but their families left Ireland 100 or more years ago and they have mixed background but they want to consider themselves Irish.

Hey, check out The Wind and the Lion. Sean Connery plays an Arab. I found it quite amuzing that an Arab would have a Scottish accent. An interesting movie by the way.

Newsflash- sean connery has a scottish accent- his acting career will now end because of that.


AHAAHAHHAHAHH.

You are a clueless imbecile. Do you remember JAMES BOND???

Connery actually doesn't use a strong accent in most films, if you where from Edinburgh or even Scotland you would notice he uses no slang, no twangs and pronounces his words fully. Yes he has a Scottish accent, but it only seems strong to you because it's different. So I can accept that he'd speak with this accent. Another thing is you say his daughter should have an accent because she'd pick it up from her father. That should lead to even more chances that Connery would keep his accent due to the fact he surley moved to the US with his parents.

If he was extremly Scottish, as you say you'd probably have a tough time understanding him.

Also for Henry Jones Sr. why does it make no sence? Did no one emegrate from other countries to America. One day a couple billion white people with European names just popped up? Indiana Jone's dad is infact Scottish.

But as for Russian Commanders, Spannish Minstrels, Greek Kings and Irish Cops it doesn't work.

You irritate me pal.Connery is a real man,among punks and his screen presence
alone puts people in the theaters.He is no Laurence Harvey..but who is..Sean Connery haters{little men who envy him}are few.He is a big star baby.

Let's be honest here. Sean Connery is not a great actor. He doesn't create characters. He plays Sean Connery in whatever part he's cast it. He gets hired to work in films because he's Sean Connery and used to be James Bond.

One either accepts that and enjoys his work or not. That's just how it is.
