Going back to Disney films, in what Disney movie did Sean Connery appear early in his career? Also, some of his co-stars did not receive screen credit. What characters or kind of characters did they play and why did Disney not give them screen credit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have to look it up, Peebs, but it is a shamrock-y, leprechaun affair from the late 1950s (read: pre-Bond Connery) if I'm not mistaken... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that the uncredited actors played leprechauns such as the little people who did and ...didn't get credited in ****... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peebs Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Correct! It was Darby O'Gill and the Little People. (A good movie, IMO. ) Disney did not give onscreen credit to the actors playing leprechauns to give the impression that they had hired "real" leprechauns. Yes, a very Scottish Connery (as Michael McBride) was in a very Irish movie. 🍀 Wasn't he an Irish cop in The Untouchables? Your thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BunnyWhit Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 That was some great teamwork, NoShear! In thinking about the gold in your question, I did think of a couple other little items. A couple of James Bond actors have a "golden" connection in a couple other films. A classic Bond and a newer Bond. Does it ring any bells for anyone? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BunnyWhit Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Thanks, Peebs and NoShear! You both gave excellent answers.
