Zardoz (1974)

In 1974, Sean Connery was already a famous actor. He had appeared in something like thirty movies. He had a distinctive, memorable voice. He had played James Bond. Six times. So it was probably a heavy dose of whatever narcotic was most popular in the mid-70s that lead him to accept a role in John Boorman's Zardoz, a movie about a flying stone head which may or may not be god. Come to think of it, that's amazing. I probably wouldn't have turned down that role either.
