Best Movie you have seen that was directed by Robert Redford
« on: September 23, 2009, 07:43:34 AM »
Personally I have seen several but only two really stand out as really good films. The one I watched last night (Lions for Lambs) really jumped out at me and was a really a good thought provoking movie.

Lions for Lambs (2007)
A River Runs Through It (1992)
Buckshot

 I thought Redford could have done better with Lions for Lambs. Seemed too contrived. I like the thought process but just went a long way to convey a simple idea. He's done some great movies but I don't think this one will make his top 5 list.

He's the guy in A Bridge Too Far who paddles across that one river (I think the 82nd Airborne attack) saying "Hail Mary, full of grace" the entire time.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Ok I'll bite:

Legend of Bagger Vance and Horse Whisperer...although I don't think he's all that great as an actor or director.
