This is from the following article, but you can read this story many places: [had to remove the link] The story is that a gangster named Johnny Stompanato was dating Lana Turner who then had a romance with Connery and there was a fight between Stomp and Connery:
As I say, you can read this story many places, but I'm wondering as to what the source is on this. Does anyone know? If you go to Johnny Stomp's wiki, you can read the story there and its backed up just by a recent daily mail article. Then there are some further tangentially related claims that are backed up by dead links.
Turner was having an affair with young Sean Connery, who was her co-star in Another Time, Another Place, he flew to England to confront her. And confront her he did, on set, with a gun, which he pointed at Connery. Legend has it that Stompanato pulled the gun on Connery, who grabbed the gangster's wrist, twisted it until the piece dropped out and then decked the man. All the while, the story goes, the cameras were running - I wonder where that footage is. At any rate, Connery reported Stompanato to the police, and he was deported for breaking England's gun laws.
