Great on screen but the few people I know who have spent time with him, and the two ghost-writers who walked away from working with him on a bio, all say he is a miserable human being.
Please do not speak ill of God's great gift to humanity. Perfect people are not always perfect privately. While I will not acknowledge any fault, real or imagined, in the celestial personage of Sean Connery, I do recognize that certain people may be unfamiliar with the magnitude of his genius and his enlightened spiritual status. This can be misinterpreted as having a pissy, cranky or arrogant personality much like that of the old man on the corner who throws rocks at children and puppies.
Some lowly types are just not in a position to understand perfection.
