    As he's being escorted out of the courtroom, to the judge: "Bald-headed p***k!" :D

    Family Business was terrific. {[] An extremely underrated film IMO. :D

    A very ordinary Connery film was Medicine Man. It was an absolute waste of a really good cast and director. :#

And when they start not smiling back—that’s an earthquake. and then you get yourself a couple of spots on your hat, and you’re finished. Nobody dast blame this man. A salesman is got to dream, boy. It comes with the territory." Death of a Salesman

    I would probably go with The Hunt for Red October. I think Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is great as well.

    BTW, Family Business is a nice film.

    There's plenty I haven't seen though.

    1 The hill ( I think this is his best film )
    2 Hell drivers
    3 Outland ( Wild West in space)
    4 The man who would be King ( great Freemasons film)
    5 The untouchables (another great )
    This would be my cast on a desert island collection
    By the way, did I tell you, I was "Mad"?

    Glad to see some love for the hill. I watched it because I wanted to see more young Connery and I heard it mentioned in a couple of his old interviews.
