A trio of stars top the cast of 'The Presidio' (1988): Sean Connery, Mark Harmon, and Meg Ryan. Harmon was fresh off his breakout role in 'Summer School' (1987) and is best known for his work on the TV series NCIS. A year later, Meg Ryan would co-star in her famous role opposite Billy Crystal in 'When Harry Met Sally' (1989). This film marked the second and final time that Connery would work with director Peter Hyams, the first being 'Outland' (1981). #SeanConneryDay

Terry Gilliam, of Monty Python fame, assembled an amazing ensemble cast for his 1981 fantasy adventure film "Time Bandits". Sean Connery would portray two different roles in the film, King Agamemnon and the Firefighter (the latter being Connery's idea). John Cleese, Shelley Duvall, Kenny Baker (R2-D2 in the Star Wars films), Ralph Richardson, Michael Palin, and Ian Holm are just a few of Connery's fellow co-stars. #SeanConneryDay

The Fonz

Sean Connery made an uncredited cameo as himself in the 1988 film "Memories of Me". Billy Crystal, Alan King, and JoBeth Williams are on a movie lot and Sean Connery walks by wearing a military uniform and stops for a quick chat. He did the appearance in between takes while filming "The Presidio" so the uniform is the same one from that movie. "Memories of Me" was directed by Henry Winkler who is best known for his role as The Fonz on "Happy Days".
