OK Connery - the best forgotten one


Released in 1967, Operation Kid Brother (aka OK Connery) had very little to recommend it other than having Sean Connery's non-acting brother Neil in the lead role and a supporting cast of official Bond stalwarts including Bernard Lee, Lois Maxwell, Adolfo Celi, Anthony Dawson, Daniella Bianci and Yachuco Yama (from YOLT).

It's said that Operation Kid Brother pissed Sean Connery off so much he didn't speak to those involved for some considerable time. Ennio Morricone and Bruno Nicolai's groovy spy soundtrack, redresses the balance and brightens up an otherwise painful viewing experience.
