This is my sweetheart of a grandad Paul Weston, he is 86 years old and absolutely old school cool. He has worked on 9 James Bond films, 4 Star Wars films, danced with Charlie Chaplin and has so many cool stories to tell. He isn’t very good with the internet so I thought I’d come on here to show him some love 🥰
He is sat right next to me if anyone wants to ask him some questions lol

This is pure gold. Your grandad has probably seen more Hollywood history than most people can even imagine
Favorite director to work with? Any particular kind of stunt he preferred/did not prefer?
How did he get into it?
The train looks like the 39 steps late 70s remake with Robert Powell?
Wonderful pictures and post.
I’ve read that stuntmen are usually the coolest people to hang out with on set. I’d really enjoy listening to your grandfather. Hope you both do an AMA, or audio/video interview.
WOW, Carrie Fisher and Margot Kidder !!!
Oh and yeah a bunch of cool dudes too.

I’ll check out his book. Thanks for posting here – he’s worked on some amazing movies.
