#1 hmmm, division of church and state.
maybe we need a division too of theater and state.

I dislike having actors use their fame to speak out, and that folks actually listen and give a rats ass

it taints memories of old time movies for me. I don't think I'll ever be able to watch an old Redford movie again without getting angry about the politic'ing crap.

#2 As honest injun as ALL THE PRSIDENT'S MEN came out in 1977, now back to 1976.

#8 Redford, the Dan Quayle of Hollywood.

#9 "I think we're owed a big, massive apology."

Nah, Quayle was more erudite than that.

#10 So that guy that was in Jerimiah Johnson voiced an opinion that I'm supposed to take seriously?
I don't think so, he's as big a lefty jackass as Martin Sheen. You don't see either one of those guys parting with their truckloads of cash to further the common good - therefore they're hippocrites which voids any opinion they manage to drool out.
Shut up and perform little monkey.

#11 Spot on Mike!

Damn hypocrites need to put up, or shut up and perform like the trained monkeys they are.

#12 Sure, Bob. Right after I get my apology for "The Way We Were".
By the way, Bob. You really haven't aged well...

#13 What is he still doing in the US?? Did'nt he say if Bush was elected he would move to Canada? Time for him to GTF out of the US.

#14 Redford owes the US an apology for An Indecent Proposal.

#15 In Phoenix, Arizona we have the display of human cadeavors. They preserve the bodies through a process and it looks interesting. I could've swore Redford was one of them.

#16 What no apology demands on the repression of women by Islam? Spit.

#20 Ima always think that An Indecent Proposal and Horse Whispers would make a hell of a marquee.

#21 Another leftover lefty. Looks worn down like Jimmah. No one gives a half shit about your idiot opinions Redford. Glad to see your little fest is degenerating as fast as you are. Crawl back under your rock for another year.

#23 While we are piling on: The Electric Horseman

Not only Redford, but bonus star Hanoi Jane Fonda. Not the one where she sits on an anti-aircraft gun, tho.

#25 I know Sterling Van Waganen, co-founder of the Sundance Film Festival. I may call him and ask what he thinks of Ole' Bob politicising the Festival.
