I agree with seansean, Connery was in his prime in thunderball
here's my homage to Sean in thunderball

His bloated doppelganger occupies the rest.

Just rewatched DAF.

Is Sean wearing a girdle in this one ? probably I guess.

I would say he looks 14-28 pounds or so over his weight punched in on Thunderball, where he looks in great shape BTW.

I didn't really notice the changing Toupee's in DAF, but then I am very unobservant. :tup:

Agreed. Whenever I put on a tuxedo, Sean Connery in Thunderball is the 007 I wish I resembled most.

From '96 to date I have been watching TB when I am getting ready to go for a function. It's the ultimate cool.

Also I think in DAF though he is a bit heavier and it suits him well as Bond should look tough not just trendy. In NSNA he is in very good shape for a man above 50. I am finding it difficult to maintain a waist 34.

Not really; in YOLT and DAF, Connery had man-boobs! :tup:

Could someone post pics of Connery (even just his face) from all of his Bond films to show the progression so we can see the changing hairstyle, weight etc?

Thanks.

The one for YOLT conceals a lot of the flab under Connery's chin, but it looks like even between Dr. No and From Russia with Love, a space of a few months at the very least, Big Tam was gaining weight. :tup:

Wow. That photo of him in DAF is abysmal. He was having a bad day that day. What with the pink tie flapping in the wind as well :tup:
In NSNA he looks better to me :tup: twelve years later. Talk about growing old gracefully.

The FRWL pic is from GOLDFINGER. You can tell from the hairpiece and slightly fatter face

He was in fine form for NSNA. I read a report once somewhere of opening day in San Francisco. The late Herb Caen, a famed reporter, and other older men showed up dressed to the nines, celebrating the glorious sprinkling from the fountain of youth on their chances to score, again, with curvy babes. Good as Con looked though, it was relatively so and a pale shade of his young swaggering self.

Connery always looked 10 years older than he was (when he was 32, he looked 42, so on and so forth)............Until he hit 50, then he hasn't changed much

In never say never again he looked like Robert Forster
