Billy Connolly - Film Actor

Film Actor

Connolly has often joked about the regularity of the deaths of the characters he portrays in movies. "If you want to see me in a movie, you have to hurry to the theatre, because I usually die in the first fifteen minutes. I'm never in the sequel." Connolly also claims to be the only man to ever die in a Muppet movie. Notable film appearances include Absolution (1978) with Richard Burton, and Mrs Brown (1997) with Judi Dench.
