I musht shay I awfully pleashed to shee thish

(that's my connery impression - I mean impreshhion)

[dcasey77]

'Shame cuz Big Tam (Sir Sean) had nothing but kind words for Nic Cage, Sidney Pollack, John Huston, Alfred Hitchcock and the Spielberg.'

Don't you mean Sidney Lumet not Sydney Pollack?

Indeed, it was Sidney Lumet he spoke about, thanks for the clarification.

Tam wasn't so warm when speaking about George Lucas; apparently Lucas was opposed to Connery as Indy's dad, he wanted Gregory Peck, a more academic looking character. However Spielberg pushed for Tam, despite ongoing resistence from Lucas.

Also, Tam spoke about Robin & Marion and his non-relationship with Audrey Hepburn, how she was aloof from the cast and he got the impression she was a rather sad woman! Fascinating.
