Actor-director Robert Redford is bringing the spirit of independent American cinema to Britain this week with Sundance London, transporting the film festival held annually in Park City, Utah, across the Atlantic for the first time. Robert Redford: "I was reluctant to see us go out until time was really ready. And it felt like it was and that we could take a scaled down version of what we do in the mountains in Utah in January, taking a scaled down version to another country upon invitation would be a good thing." The 75-year-old star told reporters that, as a major Hollywood player, he had nothing against big budget action movies. Robert Redford: "I have been fortunate to work both sides of the aisle so to speak, in other words starting early on in my career working in large Hollywood films, most of which were fun and great. But it didn't totally satisfy the need I had which was something more,maybe a little more risky, therefore more low budget, more independent, and so finally when we started Sundance it was to just basically enlarge the category of film to include those people that might be shut out by the mainstream thinking. "Among the non-mainstream movies that will be playing at Sundance London are 'Nobody Walks', a comedy about the clash between East Coast edginess and laid back LA. And '2 Days in New York' -- a bawdy romp about a French woman living in New York with her American boyfriend when her family come to visit en masse. (Edward Baran/ Reuters) ◆ 追蹤更多華視影音及圖文新聞：
