    Damn!

    I wonder why he never had his hair like that more often- looks like a totally different person! Usually when I see a pic of 'young Connery' he has his hair gelled back like we're all used to

    It is because it is a younger picture of him and he had more hair. By the time he played Bond his hair was thinning and he couldn't wear it like in the picture.

    That's too bad-- in the pic he reminds me of Gaston from Beauty and the Beast! lol

    Yup, that photo was probably taken in the late '50s too, when it was fashionable to wear one's hair long like that. By the early '60s, shorter hair was back in fashion for young men...

    I was browsing through the older threads and just thought I'd bring this one back for the sheer enjoyment of @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7, hahahaha.
  • Thanks @00Beast. It would be hard to find Connery photos I haven't seen. Here are some great ones:

    And even in just this one photo, you can sense why Brigitte was a mega trendsetter/icon for the 60's. She epitomises the different look of the 60's woman coming out of the 50's style. She - and Jean Shrimpton, Julie Christie, and then Twiggy - really made an impact; one that is ongoing today.
    And yeah, gotta love Sean.

    Their movie together was called Shalako: has anyone seen it??
