0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode in our continuing series honoring the great Robert Redford, who we lost a few days ago.
0:14.8	My name is Steve Morris. I'm a filmmaker and directing instructor in Los Angeles, California.
0:18.4	Hello, everyone. My name is John Roker. I'm a writer, producer, and voiceover artist here in
0:21.9	San Diego, California.
0:22.9	And we did three days of the Condor fairly early in the run of the cinefiles with our very
0:29.1	special guests, Stephen B. Jones, who I think the whole thing started when he sent me,
0:33.8	we talked to him about coming on the show, and he sent me a list of 130 movies
0:40.1	that he would be interested in doing. And I went, hey, maybe we could pair this down a bit,
0:45.5	and we paired it down to Sidney Pollock and Robert Redford. And then I think in preparation,
0:50.6	Steve watched every single Sidney Pollock movie to make sure that he was ready to come on the Cinephiles. That's an amazing. I don't think any guest has ever done that.

1:21.4	And man, Robert Redford plays a fascinating character in it. Yeah, I think this is an amazing performance because I think this is,
1:29.7	isn't this right after the sting? So this is Robert like going out on his own right now. I don't
1:34.9	have Paul Newman to carry the film. Well, they like, look, Fay Dunaway is an amazing actress and
1:39.2	every bed as powerful as Paul in her own way. But this is very much a Robert Redford movie. He is the guy who
1:46.4	has all this stuff happened to him. He's the guy that has to troubleshoot situations, figure
1:50.2	things out, roll with the punches, try to expose what's going on here at the risk of his own life.
1:56.4	And he's been thrust into this situation without his like knowledge or know-how.
2:01.9	And he has to put it all together.
2:04.4	And he has to cross some lines.
