Sean Ward's poems are dense with closely observed details, whether they occur in nature or the guts of an engine, in the human psyche or the intricacies of cat behavior. From a very male perspective, Ward delights in precise terminologies, in the physicality of labor, in the fantasy life that so often underpins the mundane, as when tearing down a shed becomes the act of a Viking berserker, or the assembly of a lawnmower becomes a Zen meditation. Ward's appreciation of craftsmanship reminds one of Eric Gill, his lanky rhythms of Whitman. -- Bryce Milligan author, critic, publisher
Todo lo que se publica sobre Sean es bueno, no hay cr ticas despiadadas contra l, y hasta su vida particular, con divorcio incluido, no es objeto de repudio. Por fin hemos encontrado a un actor que no es carnaza para la prensa amarilla.Muchos aficionados han descubierto a Connery con posterioridad a su poca de James Bond y dependiendo de la pel cula que hayan visto as ser su entusiasmo o desinter s por l. Por ejemplo, si han visto "Los inmortales", una pel cula menor en su carrera cinematogr fica, encontrar n que se trata de una cinta original que tuvo cierto xito en el momento de su estreno. Pero si comenten el error de comprar "Los inmortales 2" su decepci n ser muy grande: la pel cula es sumamente incoherente, Christopher Lambert acapara todas las escenas y Sean Connery se limita a re rse est pidamente mientras le cortan la cabeza. Supongamos que decide indagar en la trayectoria de Sean y no sabe cu l es el mejor camino. Nosotros le pod amos aconsejar que viera "El hombre que pudo reinar", "Robin y Marian" o "Negocios de familia" si es usted un aficionado a las comedias con grandes dosis de humor ingl s. Si le gustan m s las pel culas de intriga, los thrillers, le recomendar amos "Los intocables de Elliot Ness" o "La casa Rusia", mientras que si su pasi n es por el romance no nos queda m s remedio que incluir "Cinco d as, un verano" o "El primer caballero".Pero quiz pretenda ver a Connery movi ndose en ambientes extra os, casi m gicos, y en ese caso no se pierda "Los h roes del tiempo", "Zardoz" y "Atm sfera cero".De todas maneras lo m s probable es que quiera conocer a este legendario actor en su salsa, en donde se mov a con m s habilidad que Superm n por el aire. Del mismo modo que John Wayne est unido al Western y Clark Gable a "Lo que el viento se llev ", Connery est vinculado muy a su pesar a Bond, a James Bond. Para muchos aficionados "Nunca digas nunca jam s" fue el primer "James Bond" filmado que vieron, una pel cula que se hizo nada menos que veinti n a os despu s del estreno de "Agente 007 contra el Dr. No." y as no hay manera de conseguir que se enganchen a la saga de 007. No es que sea una mala pel cula, es que supone el declive, el final del h roe, y lo mismo que no es correcto que nos presenten a una dama con los rulos puestos, tampoco lo es conocer a Sean Connery cuando ten a 53 a os y odiaba tanto a su personaje que deseaba mutilarlo para siempre. Afortunadamente su maestr a como actor es tanta que ni voluntariamente consigui salir mal parado en su prop sito y su legi n de fans comenz de nuevo una carrera ascendente vertiginosa.
