Speaker 2: Staying obviously, Butch Cassidy and The Sun Dance Kid, which
Speaker 2: has got so many iconic scenes in as well.
Speaker 1: And also The Sting.
Speaker 2: And then my favorite one is a great one that
Speaker 2: he came out with in the eighties called The Natural.
Speaker 2: I would if any of you want to really see
Speaker 2: what was great about Robert Redford in a very unshowy,
Speaker 2: kind of dis intense presence he had in a movie.
Speaker 2: It was The Natural, span cent in the nineteen thirties
Speaker 2: and aging baseball legend.
Speaker 1: Roy Hobbs Bazari watched it a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it since I watched it with my
Speaker 2: dad when I was about fourteen or fifteen or so.
Speaker 1: My God, The Natural and one if it's still really great,
Speaker 1: still a beautiful, beautiful movie. It's so good. All the
Speaker 1: President's Men, Yeah, incredible, unbelievable.
Speaker 2: I didn't realize the last scene in Butsh Cassidy and
Speaker 2: the Sun Dance Kid, which has of course got Robert
Speaker 2: Redfooted and another sort of icon of cinema as well,
Speaker 2: Paul Newman, incredibly charismatic, twinkly eyed charmer as well. The
Speaker 2: last scene when they talk about where could they flee
Speaker 2: and hide in the world? Is this country Australia the
Speaker 2: great idea.
Speaker 1: Where we should go next? I don't want to hear it. Australia,
Speaker 1: that's your great idea. Australia is no better than your
Speaker 1: I mean one thing.
Speaker 3: Australia good climate, nice beaches, you can learn to swim.
Speaker 1: No swimming. Yeah, I never knew Last Sea his spiritual home.
Speaker 1: See yes, yes.
Speaker 2: So I was saying to the team before the show today, like,
Speaker 2: you know, what movies have you seen? And this is
Speaker 2: when I realized the age we're at, Alex and Pats
Speaker 2: and the age these young thrusters are at.
Speaker 1: They hadn't seen any of his movies. No wait, participating
Speaker 1: then what was the one?
Speaker 2: And bearn in mind that Robert Redford set up the
Speaker 2: Sun Dance Film Festival, which is really all about independent storytelling,
Speaker 2: and it is the festival everyone talks about I got
Speaker 2: a standing What is it like in only industry that
Speaker 2: give themselves eight hour standing evations and they just stand
Speaker 2: there and we don't get it When someone's done some
Speaker 2: really great plumbing around your house, which is equally, if
Speaker 2: not more impactful, they don't just stand there.
Speaker 1: Were you?
Speaker 2: There was one that I saw the day for the
Speaker 2: New Rock movie.
Speaker 3: Oh yes, yeah, he was yeah, yes, seventeen minutes or something.
Speaker 2: Eighteen minutes and thirty three seconds and they're.
Speaker 1: Really timing it. Do you know how long that is?
Speaker 1: Just we standing there, going keep going? And how do
Speaker 1: you going to end? Who sort of goes to sit
Speaker 1: down or anything? You know, I'm worried.
Speaker 2: Tomorrow we're going to see, like the big premiere of
Speaker 2: MJ the Musical. I'm going to start a standing ovation
Speaker 2: at the beginning and see if I can get it
Speaker 2: and beat what they do. At the Sundance Film Firstival.
Speaker 3: He used to sit down after everyone else has to kayline.
Speaker 1: What Robert Redford movie? You know? Is it The Sting?
Speaker 1: Is it The Natural? All President's Men? It was Captain America,
Speaker 1: the Winter Soldier.
Speaker 2: He was really good villain. One of his finest roles,
Speaker 2: right your homework now is to see, but Castid in
Speaker 2: the Sundance Kid.
Speaker 1: It's a great movie.
Speaker 3: I happily will I will.
Speaker 2: I will from everything that I've seen today and reading
Speaker 2: all up about. But I also think that some of
Speaker 2: the movies that he was in, right, but casting a
Speaker 2: Sundance Kid can never be remade, right, And I'll see
Speaker 2: what other movies should never ever be remade?
Speaker 1: I would say, Back to the Future.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think that one might get remade, though
Speaker 3: I like Christopher Lloyd.
Speaker 1: You're right, there's only one Christopher Lloyd.
Speaker 3: But it's right for the picking lazy movie.
Speaker 2: Studios going to get in their no, don't say Mark Wahlberg's.
Speaker 1: No please no. Yeah, And what about.
Speaker 2: I was just thinking, like Forrest Gump is Tom Hanks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've never actually finished Forrest.
Speaker 1: Really, my friend, what do you.
Speaker 2: Mean it's a joyous war? I mean it's sad at times,
Speaker 2: it's beautiful. Lieutenant tell me you got further than Lieutenant Dan.
Speaker 3: But I haven't made it more than twenty minutes.
Speaker 1: Oh really, that's the start of it.
Speaker 2: It's just like, who does that I should have, which
Speaker 2: I know in this at a job interview stage would
Speaker 2: not be in the studio with me.
Speaker 1: This is shocking, and.
Speaker 3: You know it's going to be a long movie. So
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't know, I think I can do three
Speaker 3: hours of this.
Speaker 2: It's beautiful with your generation, with you sit for three
Speaker 2: hours and watch cinematics.
Speaker 1: For three hours. TikTok looking at cat videos. That's your homework, Creer.
Speaker 3: You've got to see.
Speaker 1: This movie. It won so many oscars. Him and Ron Howard.
Speaker 1: What's not about that? I know? I know, did you
Speaker 1: even you wouldn't have got a spile as Lieutenant Dan.
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is now you have. It
Speaker 1: just kind of stupid, And that's how it starts. We
Speaker 1: judge him and then you realize he's the best of us. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll give it another simple man with the pure heart.
Speaker 1: You know, if anything is about Alex
