Got anything good?
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian Connell Show podcast. Christian Japassy
just say that Collingwood are paying tribute to Robert Redford.
I didn't realize he was such a big influence for
the team.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
He was a yes, yes, yes, I know.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
You would have thought you'd be more in a ds man,
you know, but no big shot today. Isn't that the
great Robert Redford has died? He said, Actually he was
a closet pie fast to have him in the.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Shares before the jo really say Collingwood.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
It did, you said Hollywood, But it did also sound
a lot like let's we get the audio like Collingwood,
which leaning into that.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
Just run with it.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Perhaps it's a night running into the finals, the big
Twilight game Saturday night for pies, the fact that they
might maybe some confusion. Now we can start a roomor
here next thing, you know, for the game, there's gonna
be a minute silence for a pieman you have just
seeing the great Hollywood megastar up there on the screen.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
And then at the end of all that a photo
of him and the banner as they run a run
through it great. The Sting anyway, a feels like.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
The last of one of the real icons of an
old time version of Hollywood, a real, a real megastar,
high watched charismas so many great movies like Patsy Was
Staying obviously, Butch Cassidy and The Sun Dance Kid, which
has got so many iconic scenes in as well.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
And also The Sting.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
And then my favorite one is a great one that
he came out with in the eighties called The Natural.
I would if any of you want to really see
what was great about Robert Redford in a very unshowy,
kind of dis intense presence he had in a movie.
It was The Natural, span cent in the nineteen thirties
and aging baseball legend.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Roy Hobbs Bazari watched it a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
I haven't seen it since I watched it with my
dad when I was about fourteen or fifteen or so.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
My God, The Natural and one if it's still really great,
still a beautiful, beautiful movie. It's so good. All the
President's Men, Yeah, incredible, unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
I didn't realize the last scene in Butsh Cassidy and
the Sun Dance Kid, which has of course got Robert
Redfooted and another sort of icon of cinema as well,
Paul Newman, incredibly charismatic, twinkly eyed charmer as well. The
last scene when they talk about where could they flee
and hide in the world? Is this country Australia the
(02:47):
great idea.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Where we should go next? I don't want to hear it. Australia,
that's your great idea. Australia is no better than your
I mean one thing.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Australia good climate, nice beaches, you can learn to swim.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
No swimming. Yeah, I never knew Last Sea his spiritual home.
See yes, yes.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
So I was saying to the team before the show today, like,
you know, what movies have you seen? And this is
when I realized the age we're at, Alex and Pats
and the age these young thrusters are at.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
They hadn't seen any of his movies. No wait, participating
then what was the one?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
And bearn in mind that Robert Redford set up the
Sun Dance Film Festival, which is really all about independent storytelling,
and it is the festival everyone talks about I got
a standing What is it like in only industry that
give themselves eight hour standing evations and they just stand
there and we don't get it When someone's done some
really great plumbing around your house, which is equally, if
(03:49):
not more impactful, they don't just stand there.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Were you?
Speaker 2 (03:53):
There was one that I saw the day for the
New Rock movie.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Oh yes, yeah, he was yeah, yes, seventeen minutes or something.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Eighteen minutes and thirty three seconds and they're.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Really timing it. Do you know how long that is?
Just we standing there, going keep going? And how do
you going to end? Who sort of goes to sit
down or anything? You know, I'm worried.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Tomorrow we're going to see, like the big premiere of
MJ the Musical. I'm going to start a standing ovation
at the beginning and see if I can get it
and beat what they do. At the Sundance Film Firstival.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
He used to sit down after everyone else has to kayline.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
What Robert Redford movie? You know? Is it The Sting?
Is it The Natural? All President's Men? It was Captain America,
the Winter Soldier.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
He was really good villain. One of his finest roles,
right your homework now is to see, but Castid in
the Sundance Kid.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
It's a great movie.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
I happily will I will.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I will from everything that I've seen today and reading
all up about. But I also think that some of
the movies that he was in, right, but casting a
Sundance Kid can never be remade, right, And I'll see
what other movies should never ever be remade?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
I would say, Back to the Future.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Oh yeah, I think that one might get remade, though
I like Christopher Lloyd.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
You're right, there's only one Christopher Lloyd.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
But it's right for the picking lazy movie.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Studios going to get in their no, don't say Mark Wahlberg's.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
No please no. Yeah, And what about.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I was just thinking, like Forrest Gump is Tom Hanks.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Yeah, I've never actually finished Forrest.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Really, my friend, what do you.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Mean it's a joyous war? I mean it's sad at times,
it's beautiful. Lieutenant tell me you got further than Lieutenant Dan.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
But I haven't made it more than twenty minutes.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Oh really, that's the start of it.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
It's just like, who does that I should have, which
I know in this at a job interview stage would
not be in the studio with me.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
This is shocking, and.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
You know it's going to be a long movie. So
I'm like, I don't know, I think I can do three
hours of this.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
It's beautiful with your generation, with you sit for three
hours and watch cinematics.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
For three hours. TikTok looking at cat videos. That's your homework, Creer.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
You've got to see.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
This movie. It won so many oscars. Him and Ron Howard.
What's not about that? I know? I know, did you
even you wouldn't have got a spile as Lieutenant Dan.
I don't know what that is now you have. It
just kind of stupid, And that's how it starts. We
judge him and then you realize he's the best of us. Okay,
(06:37):
I'll give it another simple man with the pure heart.
You know, if anything is about Alex
