GOOD NEWS: Healthwise, Sean Seems To Be Doing Just Fine!


Here he is on camera, only two weeks ago (March 23, 2015), at a gala celebrating Broadway producer John Gore.

There are two clips of him being interviewed. His voice (as you expect) shows his age, but he's with it, smiling, articulate, and cocking that signature eyebrow.

Haha, he still has the brow indeed, good find ?

...he has lost alot of weight the last year. The 80's is the worst decade for most if they live that long. Its nothing to celebrate. Nice that hes still here but just stating the reality if the situation.

It's good news because in 2013 there were news outlets running a story that Sean was suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Denials were issued by spokesmen (and by Michael Caine), but without a public appearance, who could really be sure?
(Threads about it are still on this board.)

So, to see in 2015 Sean as he is at this event, with no evidence of succumbing to Alzheimer's, is good news indeed.

Thanks for finding and posting this. I'd heard worrying stories about him. He seems in pretty good form . Good news!

Amazing ! Living legend !

I'm just watching The Hunt for Red October now, and I started to wonder when the last time was that he had acted. Shame nothing since 2003.

I started to wonder if dementia had gotten him, and that would explain why it's almost as if nobody has seen him for over 10 years, but he looks pretty good in the 2015 video you linked.
