All this only shows that an actor, no matter how talented and successful he is, should stay close to the right producers and directors. Yes, an actor should try to get the maximum fee, but not be especially rude to those who really make money at the box office. An actor by himself, even the most talented one, can do little, here you need a combination: actor, producer, director, and something else that is not so easy to determine.
two of Connery's best early films, Woman of Straw and The Hill, had surprisingly poor showings at the b.o. I guess audiences just wanted to see him as 007 in the 60s.
HIGHLANDER WAS NOT A FLOP
Actually it was. Budget of 19 million it only made 12 million
It won an academy award for best movie ever made.

Highlander was NOT a flop, agreed.more research needed here.
@manricobianchini5276 yes it was budget of 19 million and made 12 million

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was a super hit?
He was in Robin Hood, prince of thieves, for about one minute.
Highlander started a franchise and is now a cult movie.
ATB = All Time Best (really should be ATG: All Time Great)
Also, kudos for including #55. Many people forget Connery was the voice of Draco!
What is ATB
The Wind and the Lion was a great movie, but was up against Jaws! Highlander was a flop? I think not!!!
@YakubibnEsau yes it was. Budget of 19 million made 12 million
@@jasonhann8527 ok, you got me! We just watched it over and over again in college!
Highlander, FLOP? NO! NO! NO! Highlander is CULT!!!!
@evandroschuler2159 yes it was. Budget of 19 million it made 12 million so yes it was.
Can someone tell me what ATB means?
All time blockbuster

All Time Best
In the early films he was only a support actor
Missed 'Highlander 2, the retconning version' - total dumpster fire...
