Thomas Sean Connery was born in the Fountainbridge area of Edinburgh on 25th August, 1930.
Big Tam, as he was affectionately known around Fountainbridge in his youth, well he was Tommy until his teens, when he shot up in height and stature, at one point he entered a bodybuilding contest, he was 6'2″ at the time, weighed around 14 stone, had a 48-inch chest, 25-inch thigh, and his arms were 15.25 inches.
His first job was as a milkman with the St Cuthbert’s Co-Operative Society in Edinburgh. I would think he would have delivered the milk on a horse drawn carriage, the stables for these horses was in the are he grew up, were in Grove Street, where I used to live the main offices for St Cuthbert’s still stands round the corner on Fountainbridge.
Connery also played football at junior level for Bonnyrigg Rose, my cousin played for them too for several years.
A few more facts about Sean are he has a tattoo on his arm that state “Scotland Forever” he got when he enrolled in the Merchant Navy, he was discharged from that job due to stomach ulcers, between jobs he was a nude model for art students at Edinburgh College of art, again not to far from Fountainbridge. Other jobs he took up were, a lorry driver, a lifeguard at Portobello swimming baths,a labourer and a coffin polisher!
I think it is interesting Connery never strayed far from Fountainbridge in his younger days, indeed when he decided that acting was a career he was going to pursue, it was the nearby Kings Theatre he got a job helping backstage, he was also competing in bodybuilding competitions at this time and while at an event in London he learned that there were auditions being held for South Pacific, he was picked to appear on the chorus line but as the production toured the country he was making his way up the ladder.
By the time it hit Edinburgh he had the part of Marine Cpl Hamilton Steeves and was understudying two of the juvenile leads, and his salary was raised from £12 to £14–10s a week, when the production was reprised the following year he had the lead role on the tour, taking over from the actor Larry Hagman, who played the part in London’s West End.
Connery never looked back from there and of course the role of James Bond catapulted him to international stardom, Ian Fleming though was against him getting the part initially, he said Sean was “unrefined” and not what he had in mind, Sean soon won him over though and Fleming later admitted he was an “ideal” Bond.
A few of the parts Sean either didn’t get or turned down are Gandalf, in the Lord of the Rings series of films, he said he never understood the books and also wasn’t keen on 18 months of filming in New Zealand. He also turned down the chance to play the role of the Architect in The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions. Sean was asked to portray King Edward I in Braveheart, but was too busy working on Another film at the time, Patrick McGoohan took the role instead, I’m sort of glad he never played Longshanks.
His 93rd and last film was 2003’s The League of Extraordinary Gentleman - although he officially retired in 2006, although he was temporarily tempted back to do the voice of Sir Billi in the animated adventure comedy of the same name.
Sir Sean Connery passed away in his sleep on 31st October 2020 at his home in the Bahamas, his son said he had been unwell for some time. The official cause of death was pneumonia, heart failure and old age, his death certificate revealed.
In a career spanning over 50 years, Connery earned an Academy Award, multiple Golden Globes, including the Cecil B. DeMille and Henrietta Awards, as well as two British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) awards.
I've posted more pics than I normally would, firstly to show that Sean was much more than the first Bond, but also because the Scottish public, had and still have a big connection and love for the big guy.
Sean Connery 25th August 1930 – 31st October 2020.

Rumor was she wanted Catherine to hand over all of her patronages and her projects when Meghan married Harry because Meghan would be able to bring more to the table for the projects
How the F should that have worked? Most of these patronages, the ones that Catherine has were built through fostered relationships, especially Projects,
BAFTA, I guess i could see why she wanted that, I mean she has never been to any major awards not even critics choice, or that teen awards thing that Vampire diaries won every year. So the BAFTA would have been a chance for her to mingle with said actors. She was given the Royal National Theatre, I am sure if she wanted she could have scored an invite to the Olivier Awards. Not even Born royals are given major patronages and Projects when they start out. But she was shuffled to Vice president of the commonwealth Trust( new made up position) RNT all of this within the first year of marriage.
Meghan was given a ton of preferential treatment right off the bat. I do believe if she had stayed she would have been given the royal family order and some other type of order by the end of 2020.
I think because everyone was basing over backwards to make her happy that she thought she could demand just about anything and get it.
Harry and Meghan were pretty much getting equal treatment to William and Catherine. Except they weren’t able to set up their own court which infuriated them.

Also:
I am a proud fan of this game called Goodbye Volcano High. It is a cinematic game with major queer characters, including the non-binary protagonist Fang. A game like that is bound to be targeted by the alt-right. And it was, leading to a hugely offensive response to GVH in the form of a "parody" game.
I do not care for the disrespectful "parody" game, which I consider one of the worst things to happen to humanity, much less its undeserved fan base.
Sure, GVH is flawed like all other beloved games, but its strong points (charming characters and their unique designs, impactful themes, cool music) outweigh the weak points. And I am not alone in how I feel.
Plus, the game has been acknowledged positively by THREE major awards ceremonies: The Game Awards, BAFTA, even GLAAD! Sure, it only got nominations in all three, but that's still something!
Not to mention that the developers went through hell to get this game released. First revealed in 2020, released three years later. And in between was a bunch of rewrites and bull**** from intolerant alt-right trolls. And the payoff was awesome: not only the nominations above, but positive reviews from professionals and LGBT+ players.
So, no matter what SOME people may say, Goodbye Volcano High is a modern gem worth playing.

Catherine Fabienne Dorléac (born 22 October 1943), known professionally as Catherine Deneuve, is a French actress. She is considered one of the greatest European actresses on film. In 2020, The New York Times ranked her as one of the greatest actors of the 21st century.
Deneuve made her screen debut in 1957 at age 13, in a film shot the previous year when she was only 12. A major figure of the New Wave, she became, like Brigitte Bardot and Alain Delon, one of the best-known French artists in the world. In a career spanning nearly 70 years, she has played more than a hundred roles and is recognized in France and internationally for being one of the key faces of the musical film genre with appearances in The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, The Young Girls of Rochefort, Donkey Skin, 8 Women and The Beloved. Early in her career, she gained acclaim for her portrayals of aloof and mysterious beauties while working for well-known directors such as Luis Buñuel, François Truffaut, Jacques Demy, Roman Polanski, and Agnès Varda. She played in films attracting a total of nearly 99 million spectators in theaters, making her the working actress with the most admissions in France. In 1985, she succeeded Mireille Mathieu as the official face of Marianne, France's national symbol of liberty.
She has received numerous accolades over her career including two César Awards and the Venice Film Festival's Volpi Cup for Best Actress as well as nominations for an Academy Award and BAFTA Award. She has received honorary awards, including the Berlin International Film Festival's Golden Bear in 1998, the Cannes Film Festival's Honorary Palme d'Or in 2005, and the Venice Film Festival's Golden Lion in 2022.
In 1986, Deneuve introduced her own perfume, Deneuve. She is also a designer of glasses, shoes, jewelry and greeting cards. In 2005, she launched a limited-edition makeup collection for MAC Cosmetics. For the Catherine Deneuve eyewear line, she has had licensing agreements with Viva International (from 1989) and Marcolin (2014–2019) for the design, production and distribution of sunglasses and optical frames.

315 - French Exit
Michelle Pfeiffer is a screen legend whose return always feels like an occasion--even if we're all stuck at home. In 2020, Azazel Jacobs' French Exit debuted at the New York Film Festival with Pfeiffer starring as a wealthy New York eccentric who loses her fortune and absconds to France, all while perhaps haunted by her dead husband in the form of her cat. Pfeiffer earned strong reviews for her performance, but the film itself proved grating to a number of critics and couldn't sustain its presence as its release shifted.
This episode, we talk about Pfeiffer's previous three nominations and the chaos of the covid year's Golden Globe comedy nominations. We also talk about Valerie Mahaffey's terrific supporting performance, the career of Imogen Poots, and Jacobs' current contender His Three Daughters.
Topics also include our first thoughts on the current Survivor season, the 2020 NYFF lineup, and BAFTA's changing rules.

Question.
Considering that Cait is pretty much gone from SM, do you think it works in her favor acting wise or not?
She's probably busy now with The Amateur resuming filming but in general how do you see it?
Thanks for the questions, Anon. 😃
Do I think Caitríona’s limited social media use works in her favour, acting wise?
Gifer
I think her limited use of social media is incidental, acting wise.
While she’s still a relatively small fish in a big pond, the quality of her performances, accolades from directors, colleagues, and critics, and her 19 award wins and 51 nominations (IMBd) make enough noise. Her name is listed among the nominees and winners of four of the five top acting awards.* She’s been nominated for a BAFTA, won one Scottish BAFTA and been nominated for another. She’s been nominated for five Golden Globe, three Critics Choice, and two Screen Actors Guild awards. (And has won an IFTA award and been nominated for eight others.)
Despite her not being nominated for an Academy Award, she, with Tony, represented Le Mans ’66 (Ford v. Ferrari) and Belfast at the 2020 and 2022 ceremonies, where the films won three Oscars in total.
FarFarAwaySite
Instagram
You mentioned she’s currently busy filming (The) Amateur. Its star and executive producer, Rami Malek, is the 12th Oscar winner who’s shared film credits with Caitríona. The others are:
Sir Michael Caine (2)
Morgan Freeman
Jodie Foster (2)
Julia Roberts
George Clooney (2)
Matt Damon
Christian Bale
Andrew Buckland & Michael McCusker**
Donald Sylvester***
Dame Judi Dench
Sir Kenneth Branagh
She is and has been in good company.
Your second question, Anon, is how do I see it in general, Caitríona’s limited social media use?
I appreciate her limited use of social media. I imagine she fulfills contractual obligations and posts beyond that when the spirit moves her, but I get why she’s pulled back. Many actors who have the luxury of choosing not to use social media stay away from it. Some who choose to use it post only project-related, non-personal information. Her being cast in Outlander, and the show’s success, are gifts she cherishes, but they’ve come at a cost. We’ve seen where fans ignore reality and comment on her social media “direct from” Fantasy Island. Who needs that?
Remember… if you're gonna ask people to pay money to come see you in a movie, they don't need to know your every thought all the time. I think there has to be some element of mystery. — George Clooney in Esquire
*Alphabetically, Academy Award, BAFTA Award, Critics Choice Award, Golden Globe Award, Screen Actors Guild Award
**Best Achievement in Film Editing, Le Mans ’66/Ford v. Ferrari

He played the Garda, and Detective Ruairi Slater in The Tourist season 2 alongside Jamie Dornan (2024) Conor MacNeill wrote a script with Jamie Dornan it's set in NI'.
The Tourist is the four-time MacNeill and Dornan have worked together – they were both in The Fall, Belfast and Siege of Jadotville together, and became good friends outside of work, even writing a script together during lockdown (more of which later)

Belfast. The film is set in the 1960s. Belfast captures the spirit and atmosphere of the city during a period of significant social and political change.
Conor MacNeill (McLaury) fictional character and Colin Morgan in Kenneth Branagh's “Belfast” film (2021) 🎬
Industry (2020)‧ Drama Young finance graduates venture out into the cut-throat competitive world to get a job during the recession times that followed as a result of the 2008 financial crisis.

The Siege of Jadotville (2016) It is a true story. Irish soldiers on a UN peacekeeping mission in Africa, are besieged by overwhelming enemy forces, as UN peacekeepers defend their outpost.
The Siege of Jadotville depicts the incredible true story of the siege of 150 UN Irish troops led by Commandant Pat Quinlan (Jamie Dornan) in the Congo in 1961. Quinlan and his men held out against a force of 3,000 local troops led by French and Belgian mercenaries working for mining companies.
youtube
In honour of their courageous actions in Congo at the Siege of Jadotville a specially commissioned medal “An Bonn Jadotville” was awarded to all men of “A” Company, 35th Infantry Battalion and the families of deceased members, to give them full and due recognition. If you haven't seen this film yet, I recommend watching it.
