    The greatest casting ever made can never be replicated.

      Worse: Mickey Rooney as a Japanese man in Breakfast at Tiffany’s

      As bad: John Wayne as Genghis Khan in The Conqueror

        Oh those are definitely worse.

        But Connery, playing an Egyptian pretending to be a Spaniard while also being the only one with a recognizeable Scottish accent amidst a an entire cast of non-Scottish people playing Scots? That was something special.

          Oh I agree. Fun movie and character though.

          No worse than a Russian submarine captain with a Scottish accent though. 🤣
