Bear king: ROBERT REDFORD IS DEAD TO ME

This is reposted because, as the poster in the other thread said, Buck would have never neglected to write this in all caps.

This is a sad one because he seemed like a genuinely sweet guy and a pretty compelling environmentalist. Sundance is a really cool legacy.

I saw him in person a few times. Very modest in person.

Rest in peace Robert Redford.

Buck never would have TYPED “Bear King.”

Who will post the most moving memory - Barbra or Jane?

I'm betting on Jane.

Shocked that someone like Redford, who presumably lived a most healthy and pampered life, didn't make it into his nineties in this day and age.

He optioned Robert Penn Warren’s novel A Place to Come To as a project to develop later in his career. I wish he saw that film project through.

R6 yes but he insisted on fighting that oil rig fire in the Gulf of Mexico

I hope a disgusting infamous person dies today just so we forget them while consoling ourselves after the loss of Robert Redford.

Today is his day; anyone else checking out is fucked.

Does anyone remember their mothers, aunts, etc. baking this in the 70s? Thus is how I first heard of him as a kid.

I just read an article yesterday about Warren Beatty being in hiding and that Robert Redford has done the same. Both were unwell.

So, was that a wig in the end?

Forget Barbra, what did he do to Dustin Hoffman?

Robert may be dead, but the possum that lived on his head will live forever.

I never cared for him as an actor. But ORDINARY PEOPLE is a good film. And he did create a venue for independent filmmakers.

I'm just learning of this here right now. Thanks for posting OP.

Rest in peace Bob. And don’t take that rug you’ve been wearing for decades into the pearly gates.

Kirk is pissed because he is off the front page!

by Anonymousreply 24September 16, 2025 2:12 PM

I was thinking you really never hear much about his kids, in fact I wasn't sure he had any, so I looked it up.

Son James Redford filmmaker married to Kyle Redford and I am thinking did Robert Redford have a gay son and I didn't know about it? Kyle Redford a woman.

Robert Redford's children: James Redford, Amy Redford, Shauna Redford, Scott Anthony Redford (died of SIDS at 2 1/2 months)

What does "Bear king" mean? Am I missing something?

by Anonymousreply 28September 16, 2025 3:30 PM

R28, they’ve been trying to make Bear King happen like WHET for “whatever happened to…”

Soon we’ll have enough acronyms and sissy slang to make the entire board unintelligible.

Robert, thanks for the nepo-baby movie festival and the cable program.

FWIW, Paul Newman gave me awesome dressing. And, most probably because of Paul… And most likely against any advice coming out of Gary, we saw Joanne Woodward’s excellent performance in SYBIL!

He could have looked a lot worse for someone in his 80s.

I've only seen two Robert Redford movies: Indecent Proposal and All Is Lost. Both great.

What are his best movies?

by Anonymousreply 33September 16, 2025 6:54 PM

I love Three Days of the Condor.

by Anonymousreply 34September 16, 2025 7:34 PM

But "BEARKING" is supposed to be all in caps and one word.

Those who don't know the inside jokes shouldn't try to implement them......

Did Robert Redford wear a wig?

Up until the very end, his hair was still quite thick and brown, with no gray showing except a bit on his sideburns.

by Anonymousreply 36September 16, 2025 8:29 PM

That was a serious toupee. What made him think that it looked like his own hair.

by Anonymousreply 37September 16, 2025 8:42 PM

R36 = Rose Nylund.

by Anonymousreply 38September 16, 2025 9:06 PM

His dominant German wife made him think that way, R37.

I will never understand the people of DL, they readily accept WHET but lose their mind over BEARKING. Both are silly but neither bother me.
