Sean Connery: James Bond Revisited - DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 พ.ย. 2020
- Moviegoers lost perhaps the greatest screen icon of the 20th century this week when Sean Connery, the greatest James Bond of them all, passed away at 90. It just so happens that his death coincided with the release of our latest episode of James Bond Revisited, on his initial swan song as 007, Diamonds Are Forever, which would be the last "official" Bond film he'd be a part of. While I don't even think Connery himself would say it was one of his best, Connery, as always, is a great Bond, so join us as we pay tribute to the great man - who would indeed return to the part twelve years later (in top shape) in Never Say Never Again!

"Hi, I'm Plenty."
"But of course you are."
Classic.
"named after your Father?" :D
bitten by the bug
Rest In Peace Legend and a real man.
A true chad
The Original 007 and "Captain Marko Ramius" of The Red October.
Sean Connery 007 foreverrr!!!
The real James Bond. I love you Sean. God bless your soul. Have fun. ❤️
George Lazenby is a close second (cos he copied Sean) ... after that everyone else (Moore, Dalton, Craig, Brosnan, ...) ... tribute acts.
RIP George Lazenby’s career.
George was young ( 20s )and it went to his head . He listened to his crappy mgr and if he stayed DRF would had gave him a arc to find Blofeld with more money in the budget he would matured into the role as his own .
RIP, Sean Connery. Nobody does it better than James Bond.
Bond..James Bond.
Sorry, I had to.
Nobody does half as good as you, Sean.
All the others played Bond, Connery was Bond.
The spy who loved me was a Roger Moore film, but that's still a charming comment
Makes me feel sad for the rest
The bond girls in this movie are absolutely smokin'. Especially Plenty O'Toole
Most definitely a mega hotty
She didn't do much for me. I liked Tiffany Case.
What about Bambi and Thumper?
@@caza728 Meh
"Diamonds Are Forever makes Moonraker look like The Dark Knight." Lmao okay, that got me.
RIP Sean Connery: a true film legend.
He's not lying.
At least Moonraker knew it's limitations.
@@ricardocantoral7672 I would like Moonraker a whole lot more if it got rid of the stupid silly camp crap. Moonraker is a better film than Diamonds Are Forever. I also rather watch Moonraker than Spectre as well.
Moonraker was basically the same plot as The Spy Who Loved Me, except set in space rather than under water. (Star Wars Rip Off!) The sad thing is that I actually like Roger Moore, he's been in some cracking films, and he has his own brilliant persona. The only thing he's not is Sean Connery!
@@greatwuta I agree. Moonraker had genuine moments of suspense and violence such as the brilliant centrifuge scene and the shocking death of Connie DuFour.
I do not care about the criticisms towards Diamonds are Forever. It is such a fun movie. Plus the setting and music in it are extraordinary. And Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd are the most unique villains ever.
it's great fun
Got that right, i always crack up when they say there lines after they killed someone and that tune that plays when there conducting evil. Definitely unique villains.
Never Say Never was also criticized. I loved both of them.
@@thomaspick4123 that was a thunder ball remake. And thunder ball was better
That's Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd. Didn't realize that Bruce Glover was Crispin's father.
The Howard Hughes villain was a really cool touch.
Filmed at his hotel as well .
The elevator fight with the real Peter Franks is one of the best in the series.
I think one of best fight scenes by Connery.
Yeah, it has the same energy as the From Russia With Love train fight. Honestly it's the best part of this film.
The Offence (1973) is an amazing film. Really grim and hard-hitting. Connery's performance was superb.
I saw some of it a long time ago. Check out the Andersen Tapes with Connery and a very young Christopher Walken.
Jill StJohn was probably one of the most beautiful bond girls. Totally stunning!
I was just saying the same.
Probably the sexiest.
@@howie9751 I would have to agree
She has alot of controversy surrounding her life .
beautiful...maybe not. but HOT...heck yeah!!!
Generally I don’t pay attention to celebrity deaths but this somehow his death left me very melancholy at least he had a full life and lived until till 90.,
RIP Sean.. your movies had a special place in my life because my father looked exactly like you.. so it was difficult to watch a movie with you without being constantly reminded of him..
Your father was obviously a handsome man. Sorry for your loss.
Even though I've seen multiple documentaries for all the James Bond movies, these ones are really great, and I can't wait for the rest! Thanks, Chris!

I love Diamonds are Forever. Underrated Bond film.
I don't like it much, but I'll take over the boring crap Daniel Craig movies we've had in recent years.
I saw it at a downtown chicago theatre was I was 8 yrs old.
It’s pretty shit. But it has some high points like the elevator fight and Mr wint and Mr kidd
@@dtz1000Every Daniel Craig bond movie >>> Diamonds are Forever
Overrated by those who consider it underrated
Definitely was a fun film in the series, more of a satire. Connery was tired of the role and felt taken advantage of by the Producers of the series. The success of this movie, set up the Roger Moore era of films, which continued the gadgets and humor that made Moore's movies so successful.
Connery is still the best Bond, hands down.. Definitely an icon whom's acting has been missed for nearly 20 years! RIP.
I love Charles Gray as Blofeld. No one else ever played him like a kindly Grandad. Also the brilliance of the line.
"Get back to your post Metz or i'll have you shot"
Then as quick as a flash
"Prepare my emergency sub"
Gray didn't conform to the traditional appearance of the cinematic Blofeld but he did resemble the literary Blofeld in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
Gray was a formidable and an imposing actor. If you look at from Russia with love you see that Blofeld had hair. The one point I'd disagree with you is that Charles Gray could ever be considered a kindly uncle?
This was my favorite Bond film. I see Bond films as fun, and this one was fun and had style.
Well at least he died rich and had a great time in retirement rest in peace Sean Connery.
RIP Sean Connery. A legend. The ultimate James Bond. While Diamonds Are Forever isn’t the best I do love Bond getting revenge in the opening of the film.
My deepest respects to late Mr. Sean Connery and to his family. Of all the actors who played the role of James Bond 007, he was the best !
He would want you to remember him in many other films he made but Bond was the cherry . I watched the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen 2 wks ago and still liked it .
@@speedracer1945 Yes, you are right, he personally didn't like himself to be remembered only by his James Bond role but by other characters he played apart from Bond. But my personal view is that he was best for Bond character. Sorry, I had not watched the movie you mentioned and will try to look for it. Thanks.
@@janath9118its on Tubi and sort of a 19th century Avengers with characters from that literary era .
@@speedracer1945 Ah, now I remember it. My brother watched this movie and told me the story sometime back. A story set on the 19th century. I will try to watch it on youtube. Thank you for your reply!
@@janath9118 another film but hard to find is Name of Rose , about a murder in a monastery during the 15th century with Connery and a young Christian Slater . The labyrinth scene towards the end is cool .
This movie will always have a special place in my memory. It's the first non-kids movie I saw in a theatre and my father took me since I was too young to see the movie in the evening unsupervised. Years later I took him to see The Spy Who Loved Me.
Your father got the better of the deal, LOL
A Legend , R.I.P Sean Connery 🙏
I still shed tears to this day !! RIP Sean Connery, I salute you !!!!
R.I.P Sean Connery ❤️🙏🏻
R.I.P., Sean Connery..
Despite what people say, I always enjoy watching this film in terms of how it captured 70s with John Barry’s great score😁👍🏻.
Thank you for the great video😃👍🏻!!
The movie was alright, but my favorite character was the control room guy, "10 minutes and counting..." which was pretty accurate timewise, and that blank stare just topped the whole thing off. RIP Sir Sean Connery 🏴
Very nice touch at the end. RIP Sir Sean, we love you.
Diamonds are forever is underrated
by discerning Bond viewers
Sean was a good man and will be missed 🙂🤘
This was a pretty enjoyable movie, and an okay last hoorah for Connery until his first and last non-EON movie ages later. I specially love the Mach 1 pursuit and the whole scene before and during the buggy pursuit. Just a pretty good movie overall, or so I believe.
Damn, so much class in those last lines.
Should have kept Telly Savalas as Blofeld
Rest in peace, Sean. What a bloody legendary man, someone I aspire to be like. Rest well, you bloody well earned it mate ❤️
I miss him forever, thank you for everything Big Tommy.
Sean Connery was a great man.
Diamonds are forever... and so does your legacy, Mr. Connery. Rest in peace!!!
Great as usual, Thanxx!!!
Sean Connery was the first epic 007.
R.I.P. Bond, James Bond
The first ten minutes should have been the concept for the whole movie, Bond traveling the world looking for Blofeld and punching people in the mouth.
I was disappointed when I saw it . I thought it would be a revenge film but he supposedly kills Blofeld before the credits . So what happened to Irma Blunt ? The actress died before OHMSS was released but she was the one who shot Tracy , Blofeld was driving.
Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd are legendary.
Lana was exceptionally gorgeous. My oh my. :)
Lana Ward in that dress was exceptional. The costume department deserved a reward for that alone.
Mr Wint and Mr Kidd are pretty great... Theme song is amazing... it's silly fun. 7/10
My first Bond film. I was 12, sitting in the General Cinema theater in Burlington, MA. I was mesmerized from the white dots through to the end. After that, I read ever Fleming novel and tracked down all the films (including a triple-feature [pre-VCR days]). It was wonderful.
8:03 - that scene alone makes the movie.
thats the finale.
Without doubt, one of the most preposterous, camp and absurd motion pictures ever made.
Utterly far fetched and ludicrous from beginning to end.
And I absolutely love every precious second of it...
"Plenty O'Toole"
"Named after your father no doubt."
I told Lana Wood at a convention one time that is my all-time favorite Connory line.
Sean Connery was the best bond !!
Who else here agrees? 😏
Yes,but nobody could wear a safari suit with the same degree of causality as Roger Moore...
My childhood memories.
@@tintomara6209 And now liberals are ruining it 😒
@@tsaoa same 😏
Nicely done. I was unaware of most of the facts here, and I liked the respect played to Sean Connery.
These are great reviews!! keep up the good work
This wad my first Bond film - shown at our local cinema some time after its premier. At the time, in the UK, none of the films had been shown on TV, so this was quite an outing! I was blown away by it and, although I agree with your critique, it is still one of my favourites.
Sir Sean was a miserable so and so. I loved him then and now and forever. A diamond.
You Only Live Twice was Connery's "initial swan song" (the non-EON Never Say Never Again would be his third/final swan song) 😎
The best bond ever in my eyes RIP❤️❤️❤️
Jo...the way you do all your videos...recap, comment, and describe, edit...i love them all and have thoroughly enjoyed everything.
Thank you for all of these. Looking forward to the Daniel Craig era!
Sean Connery will NEVER be forgotten. He is immortal, to me anyways, as James Bond and Indy's Pop!! \m/
Dr. No came out a year after I was born and I always looked at Sean Connery's James Bond as a Superman . I have to admit I have never been so sad for any other celebrity who has passed on like I did with him.
This film will always be good time to watch. Favourite unsung moment in the film. One of the surreal gangsters cracking a smile while telling Bond he too has a brother.
7:06 ahh yes famous Welsh singer 'Shirley slap a da Bassy' XD
With Sean Connery's passing still recent at the time this video came out and I'm writing this, it feels a bit difficult to state that this isn't exactly my favorite Bond film even with Sean Connery in it, but that's how I have always felt about Diamonds Are Forever 🤷♂️
Still, Sean Connery will always be the best Bond ever.
Diamonds are forever and so is sean connery
R.I.P., Sean Connery, the real legend in movie world!!! *** And "Diamonds Are Forever" is not a bad movie after all!!! I really enjoyed to see Las Vegas in 1971. Car stunts are great. Women are very beautiful. Stunman George Leach in the finale in great. Title song is one of the best ever. And of course: there's a lot of fun, important element we cannot see in Craig Bond's anymore............
Please don't compare any Daniel Craig's 007 films to this garbage.
This was the first date my parents went to after dinner at Pizza Hut back in the day.
Wstine79
Wow.
I have no idea why, but this is one of my favourite bond movies.
Rest in peace mr. Connery sir. Epitome of a man. Rest in peace
I know it's an unpopular opinion... But I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER!
The pre credit sequence is the highlight of this movie.
What a great tribute
"Diamonds are Forever makes Moonraker look like the Dark Knight" LOL!!!!!!!
This is my fav Connery film... yes even more than Goldfinger... which is my second fav Connery.
I'm one of those strange beasts, this is my favourite Bond movie! I love Charles Greys portrayal of Blofeld, yeah I know its probably not authentic to the books but he's just so damn quotable, in fact I think I love this movie as it's the most quotable of all the Bonds!
I have no idea how Joblo isnt ill millions of subs and view. Credit to all your videos. A real film buffs channel. thanks.
Totally disagree with the villains rating. Way overthinking. They’re great in this film!
Yeah, this reviewer is a bit of a sensitive leftie at times. I noticed it in his review of The Man With The Golden Gun. He's way too politically correct to give an unbiased review of these two Bond movies. I thought the two baddies in this one were great and very memorable. They deserved way more than a two out of ten.
Yeah I disagree too, he gets really nitpicky and very PC at times, and you can't really judge it that way due to this era of Bonds were made in a totally different time
" I gotta brudda ! " " Small world "
What did he say?
It was a great shock to me finding out that James Bond passed away.
Two of the actors who have played James Bond have passed away Sean Connery and Roger Moore
@@scottknode898 Sean Connery is James Bond
I am so intrigued by the possibility that this could’ve had Auric Goldfinger’s twin brother in it. It is so cool to see Connery back in the role for just one more go though, a up to that time. But George Lazenby’s turn in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service was excellent. If memory serves, the original plan was to have the end scene of Bond and his bride being shot by Blofeld from OHMSS as the pre-credit scene for “Diamonds are Forever”. I will always love this film though. Keep more Bond retrospectives coming!!
That was a dumb idea and I am glad it was scrapped. I hate the thought Gert Frobe returning to the series just to do a lame knock off of Goldfinger.
The best and greatest ever James Bond ‼️
Thank you for the video. Have a nice day.
i like this film a lot its my 3rd fave Sean one after Goldfinger and You only live twice.
I actually like Blofed here. Possibly my favorite version.
Being old enough to remember, after the crash and burn of OHMSS, movie goers were thrilled to see Connery back and would've cheered if he'd dressed as a fan dancer. While you give the villainy a low score, you completely overlook the Vegas gangster mob members casting and dialogue should've gotten a 10.
Bond: "My dear departed brother..."
Gangster [smiling]: "I got a Bruddah!"
Bond [deadpan look]: "Small world."
At 0:11 you say that OHMSS was the 5th official Bond film - but it has to be the 6th (after Dr. No, From Russia with love, Goldfinger, Thunderball and You only live twice)
At 5:43 I realized Charles Grey kinda looks like Sean Bean
Thanks for everything, 007.
The Offence is quite amazing, Connery at his finest.
I saw a Jimmy Dean sausage ad watching this ... And he's... In this movie...
Just a little thing but OHMSS was the SIXTH official Bond film and not the FIFTH as you indicated in your opening.
Connery was and always will be the best. He had all the traits that the other men who played Bond only had parts of.
RIP a Legend BOND JAMES Bond 🙏
I thought Michael Gambon was Irish, I'm sure I heard him say that in an interview.
He's Irish all right
He is
British Irish. Moved to London when he was 6.

Lazenby faced an uphill battle to replace Connery from critics so the producers found that Connery was under contract for one more film most likely paid his contract off ( he claims he didn't sign one lol ) . Diamonds are forever budget suffered over Connery's salary .
Diamonds Are Forever is the final film of Bruce Cabot (1904-1972) as Bert Saxby
Joe Robinson (1927-2017) as Peter Franks
and
Denise Perrier (1935) as Marie
Despite the film's lack of favour in the Bond fandom, it's one of my all time favourites. There's camp galore, but also some slightly more serious elements that I like. Characters like Tiffany, Plenty, Wint & Kidd and Willard Whyte are very enjoyable. Norman Burton was decent as Felix, and dare I say Charles Gray is my favourite Blofeld. The score is amazing, Vegas is a nice distinct setting for Bond, Bassey delivers another great song, and the script has a lot of great, witty dialogue.
I always like to place this one before on her majesties secret service seeing how it has no continuity with that and just watch all six official Connery bonds films together as it makes no difference for that reason than just watch lazenbys outing after this then straight on to the Roger Moore era.
There goes one of the best men ever to hit the big screen and he makes me proud to be Scottish. "Now am going to cry" Scotland and the UK's most well known actor, who is up there with the greatest ever Hollywood actors and had great presence on screen that made him instantly recognisable and no dirty secrets, he was honest and to the point whether you liked what he said or not. To us in Scotland he is a God in the world of movies and he found a way to be great and have a life outside of the movie world that sounded peaceful and private.
Such an underrated Bond film. It's my second favourite. Las Vegas just looks so good and the music is superb. the thing that always disappoints me is the lack of probable 1) Money and 2) Technology for it's time, to do the mini-sub chase sequence near the end. The Spy Who Loved Me was a more complete film.
Love it
Great job fellas
Sean Connery el mejor Bond .

This movie saved the series.
I really enjoyed this one. I like all the Connery Bonds though.
