... enviously citing the long list of Connery's on-screen conquests with names like Pussy Galore and Honey Ryder.

While on a Med cruise as a Marine on a Navy vessel we were docked in Naples, close by some U.S. subs that were in port as well. We traded movies with them, they got all the current stuff, and came away with a couple of newly released (early) James Bond films. We left Naples and while at sea the James Bond movies were shown ... it was tough watching Bond making it with those beautiful sexy women that appeared in his movies. Being single, in the Marine Corps and on a Navy ship is a very monk like existence.

My kids and I have a favorite movie with Michael Caine called "Secondhand Lions". He and Robert Duvall play two eccentric brothers with a secret.

When my kids told me to watch it I thought it would be Disneyesque, but I fast realized it was way too "red state" for Disney when it opened with them shooting fish in a pond and then salesmen.

It's the best, check it out with the kids.
