I saw Robert Redford speak at BYU. He was late (he has a reputation for being late), and he said he was late due to traffic delays from the widening of the road up Provo Canyon. He did not like the harm that this wider road would do to nature.
Redford said, "I'm 51." He was sad about this.
After saying this he started smiling in his own funny, unique way, licking his lips, and showing off his strong jaw.
I wonder how many times he has spoken at BYU. I can't find anything about it online.
Robert Redford is a bright spot in Provo. With all the discouraging Mormon stuff, at least we have one of the greatest movie stars that ever lived.
Thank Redford for Sundance Mountain Resort. Thank him for the Sundance Institute and the promotion of independent films. Thank him for his environmental activism.
If you have lived here long, you may have your own collection of "Redford sightings", by you and/or others.
Redford was married to a Mormon for awhile, so it would be interesting to know what he thinks about the subject. I think he tries to avoid talking about it. At a public gathering, somebody asked him about Mormonism, and he said, "do you really want to go there?"
