Porto, Portugal: nice city, nicer people. And a bit steeper and hillier than expected! Lots of good food, lovely mosaic tiles on many of the pavements. Make sure you try the pastéis de nata.

"And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder.
One of the four harbingers saying 'Come and see,'
And I saw,
And behold... a giant dog."

Finally, belatedly caught up with Jubilee last week, which is fabulous (Guess I'm an official Big Finish listener now!). Fascinated by Nick Briggs voicing the US Prime Minister here AND the US President in the Dalek audiobook many years later & playing both as feeble, toady "Oh, yessir!" suck-ups.

Even these two took time out of their busy Sontaran-whacking schedule to present evidence. What's your excuse??

Ha-ho, you scared me there! There's still time to leave your thoughts on The Halloween Apocalypse before the boys at @thepolisbox.bsky.social put it in the dock on Friday night. Trust me; they're GOOD at this...! 🎃

LAST BUT NOT LEAST: Perhaps Robert Redford's greatest contribution to cinema remains the Sundance Film Festival, which basically changed the landscape of independent cinema forever and cultivated an environment of discovery & creativity that became a foundation of American filmmaking in the ‘90s.

THE OLD MAN AND THE GUN:
Robert Redford thought a lot about being Robert Redford over his 5-decade career, so it makes sense to go out on this gentle caper comedy full of wistful, wrinkly smiles & a sweetly elegiac tone. A manhunt picture paced more like an afternoon stroll, which is fine by me.

OUR SOULS AT NIGHT:
Say that 3 times fast! 🤣 Robert Redford & Jane Fonda reunite exactly 50 years after BAREFOOT IN THE PARK with this cosy little picture, where the pleasure is simply watching the performances of 2 two old pros, their wonderfully weathered faces saying more than words ever could.

ALL IS LOST:
Robert Redford. Stranded at sea. With almost no dialogue.
I love this one. It's always fascinating when Redford digs into disenchanting undercurrents beneath his Golden Boy persona and this is him at his absolute best. A marvel of physicality and regret. Double-bill it with GRAVITY!

THE COMPANY YOU KEEP:
Long, lumbering & unabashedly earnest, this talky thriller feels like a relic from long ago, which isn't exactly a bad thing. It's fun to watch Redford dodge cops & catch trains while meeting a who's-who cast of aging Hollywood royalty. And also the pop-synth score from DRIVE?

SPY GAME:
Brad Pitt eventually channeled his own inner Redford in MONEYBALL, but he gets to play his younger doppelganger in this underrated Tony Scott thriller. Redford is terrific as Pitt's cool, world-weary mentor, at once unapproachable yet magnetic. We never quite know if he's lying or not.

THE LAST CASTLE:
Jumping ahead a bit, here's Redford getting his own COOL HAND LUKE as an unbreakable war hero caught in a battle of wills with James Gandolfini's sadistic bully of a prison warden. Worth it just for the performances, with Redford hiding a manipulative side behind all the nobility.

ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN:
This is the Big One for me. William Goldman's best script. Just electric. Redford & Hoffman are so great together. Watch how Redford seems to consider sentences before he says them. Biggest laugh is Bernstein's double-take when Woodward casually mentions he's a Republican!

BAREFOOT IN THE PARK:
The 1st of the Robert Redford/Jane Fonda pairings, adapted from the Neil Simon play which was his big breakthrough, and it's delightful fun. Redford was already keenly aware of his image even then, turning down similar roles in THE GRADUATE & WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?

RIP Robert Redford, a generous, absurdly handsome actor who used his money & star-power to make the world more welcoming to artists, and devoted an entire career to finding cracks in his own impossibly-photogenic facade. Redford characters always sounded too good to be true, usually cos they were.
