Dear 007 fans,
It is with great sadness (悲痛な面持ちで) that I report the passing of (逝去の) Sir Sean Connery on October 31, 2020 at the age of ninety. He was the first and, for many, the best James Bond. For some, he was the ONLY 007. For me, he was a childhood hero.
Playing a variety of roles over his seven-decade career, Sean Connery won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor (助演男優賞) in 1988 and received the American Film Institute's Lifetime Achievement Award (アメリカ映画協会の生涯功労賞を受賞した) in 2006.
A man's man who was knighted (ナイト爵を授けられた) by Queen Elizabeth in 2000, Sir Sean's services will be greatly missed.
Goodbye, Mr Bond!
In mourning,
Alan
P.S. As a child, my favorite James Bond movie was "You Only Live Twice" (007は二度死ぬ), when 007 travels to Japan!
