What bought him a supporting actor Oscar was his iconic role in “The Untouchables” as an Irish cop which was a Brian De Palma production in 1987. 

Coming back to his journey, born of Irish ancestry, Sean Connery’s life started in the slums of Edinburgh on August 25 1930.

Poverty took a toll on his life and education – he was completely shattered and he’d left schools by this teenage and was working as an unskilled laborer. At the age of 17, Sean got into the Royal Navy but after three years he was released due to a critical ulcer case.

He got back to Edinburgh and worked as a lifeguard along with various other jobs. Further, he started to develop interest in body building and was placed third in Mr Universe competition in the year 1950.

Connery says he was “hooked” once he moved to London and got to know of an opening in the “South Pacific” chorus and took singing and dancing courses which continued for 18 months. Life was still hard on the hero, he spent years and years paying money which was due on him in small companies around and inside London before becoming an iconic star.

He married actress Diane Cilento from 1962-1973 but unfortunately the marriage didn’t last and the couple divorced. Diana died in 2011 and in 1975, Connery married Micheline Roquebrune later, a painter. Sean’s son by Diana Cilento is Jason Connery, an actor and a grandson from Jason’s marriage Mia Sara who’s also an actress.
