Greg:
It's sad to read a story like that. I was thinking it would be awful
to meet someone that you admire only to be given the brush off. I can understand
that Mr. Connery get's tired of people. He has been bothered for years. Being
famous has perks but also you have to deal with losing your privacy and fans. I
think about Paul Newman and his wife Joanne Woodward. Neither will sign at all.
Never have for the public. I think Steve Martin gives out printed cards that say
"I Met Steve Martin". Maybe it's better to admire people from afar or not all
all. I think about Donald Sutherland's famous line at the end of "Ordinary
People". He said to Conrad (Timothy Hutton) "Don't admire people too much, they
might disappoint you".
Best, Tom Pennock
