Golly. You know you’ve been a member here for too long when you see zombies go down and get back up again.

I can’t remember what actor it was who, before filming a bedroom scene, said to his co-star “One of two things is about to happen, and either way, I apologize in advance”.

I so clearly remember reading that just a week ago. Yes, about Connery, and it was prior to the first bed scene he filmed, and the wording I remember was “Either something is going to happen, or something is not going to happen. Either way, I apologize.”

And I went crazy yesterday trying to document it so I could post it here accurately, but I couldn’t find any reference on line.

Theres a reason they call it a “slow dance chubby”.
