I believe this picture of Connery shown in the 1960s section is from "Never Say Never Again", which was made in the 80s. Someone should update this and show Connery's tux from either the Colonel Smithers dinner scene in "Goldfinger" or the club/casino scene from "Dr.No".

RE: Sean Connery Tux

"I never understood why Bond was wearing a white tux in the cantina at the beginning of Goldfinger.... I mean, it would've made more sense if he was in a suit. Tux's are for formal places,like casino--the ONLY place 007 should be in a tux. I guess this was Guy Hamilton's sense of humor." It was Hamilton's sense of humor--the same reason Connery is wearing a formal tux in the traditionally informal Las Vegas casino's in "Diamonds Are Forever." (In one of the out-takes on the "Essential DVD" for DAF, there's a scene between Saxby and Sammy Davis, Jr. where Sammy sees Connery walk in all white tuxed out and says something along the lines of "I'd like to see the size of the wedding cake HE escaped from."
