Sean Connery’s dark night of the soul: how The Offence took Bond into the abyss
- At the beginning of 1971, Sean Connery was not only the biggest star in the world, but he had signed a then-record breaking deal that made him the best paid actor alive, too. The previous James Bond film, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service – the first without Connery as 007 – had underperformed at the box office, making $82 million worldwide as opposed to the $112 million that Connery’s swansong, You Only Live Twice, had grossed.
