ROBERT REDFORD AND JANE FONDA HALF A CENTURY LATER

This definitely looks like a Hollywood first. FIFTY years ago Robert Redford, 81, and Jane Fonda, 79, co-starred in Barefoot in the >Park, and THIS year they are co-starring in Our Souls at Night for Netflix. They introduced the movie at the Venice Film Festival – it’s about two widowed neighbors in a small town in Colorado who develop a surprising relationship. Actually this is the fourth time they’ve costarred over the years, and Jane has a little flirty look on her face in this photo.

You don’t often see Robert Redford, 78, shopping in Soho, NYC, with his German-born artist wife Sibylle Szaggers, 59, but here they are. Redford has a new movie coming out called “A Walk in the Woods.” He stars as a sophisticated travel writer who wants to challenge himself by hiking the 2000 mile Appalachian Trail from Maine to Georgia. Nobody wants to go with him except an old friend he hasn’t seen in years – played by gruff Nick Nolte. The mismatched pair have many adventures in this true story based on a bestselling book.

Documentary James Redford Robert Redford

ROBERT REDFORD’S SON JAMES HAS ISSUES ABOUT HAVING A FAMOUS DAD

Robert Redford’s son James doesn’t seem to have a grip on the advantages of being related to a major movie star. James directed a documentary on dyslexia that he‘s been promoting in various cities but he’s not very cooperative, according to our friend CJ at the Star Tribune in Minneapolis. The press isn’t infatuated with the doc’s subject matter, but they are willing to give him some publicity if he’s willing to talk about his famous father just a little. James stubbornly says NO upfront to ANY questions involving his father and journalists are rebuffed. He’d better loosen up if he wants publicity for his cause. He’s lucky to have a famous father who opens doors.

Greedy Paris Hilton Robert Redford Snubbed! Sundance Swag Bags

PARIS HILTON TOOK ROBERT REDFORD’S HINT TO GET LOST

On the first day of the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, Robert Redford singled out Paris Hilton and her “ilk” as a destructive force for the event. He admitted the film festival had been “sliding” for the past few years and he blamed the marketeers who took over houses and spaces on Main Street at absurdly inflated rental prices to hand out their swag. He said “You end up with people like Paris Hilton here who have nothing to do with us.” Unfortunately, that year, Paris was already THERE when he made these remarks, and she had tons of empty suitcases ready to be greedily filled up with free stuff. THIS year, for the first time in memory, Paris didn’t embarrass herself by showing up at the 2011 festival and loading up on freebies. Maybe Robert Redford got through to her.
