Sean Connery was one of those actors whose mere presence added to a movie Also he will forever be 007. GODSPEED Mr. Connery.

I love that they included as the final scene the moment from "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade". It actually changes the way we see Dr. Henry Jones.

Before that moment of realization, his character was a well-meaning, if somewhat disapproving and a little befuddled.
After that moment, we see just how brilliant he is.

What a great scene and perfect that they included it in this tribute.

Thank you, Sean for bring us many great film performances throughout the years including the James Bond films, Marnie, The Wind and the Lion, The Man Who Would Be King, Robin and Marian, The Untouchables, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, The Hunt for Red October and the Rock. To many of us, you will always be the best James Bond.

Another amazing tribute to a great departed star from TCM. I think this is among their best efforts because it pays tribute to Sean Connery's iconic performances as James Bond, while also reminding us what an incredibly versatile performer he was. RIP, Mr. Connery.

Sean Connery showed the world, so much versatility in his acting, that all his movies, were box office hits. Most importantly, he was the best James Bond ever. Rest In Peace Sir Sean Connery.

I really wouldn't mind if TCM shows only Sean Connery movies from now on

[pammf]

I am in my 70’s and my love affair with Sean Connery never really ended...my only child (a son) was named after him..I am so happy that the movies will live on long after we all have passed...like he never went

[stevecrawford]

Thanks for doing this... helps with closure! 😇

TCM Remembers always makes me teary eyed everytime they do that. sometimes those spots were they actual way i found out a movie icon died. maybe it the music they play - it is a good choice. i don't know if i'll make it without crying when they show Michael Caine's when it happens. i didn't when they showed James Garner's. R.I.P. Sean Connery and thank you.

So many legends lost this year: Kirk Douglas, Vera Lynn, Ennio Morricone, Chadwick Boseman...and now Sean Connery

[rangerfanboy]

His mere presence made any scene awesome, he will be missed, but he did live a good life. Rest in peace 007. For the record, I will always best remember him as Henry Jones Sr. because that's how I got introduced to him

[Norma_Ro]

Sir Sean Connery was one of the classiest and sexiest men ever. A legend. His voice was unmistakable. The best 007. Rest in peace.

First Honor Blackman, then Diana Rigg, and now Sean Connery; TCM Remembers 2020 will have to have its own 'James Bond' section when they make up this year's IN MEMORIAM segment.
