neutral · AI labelView post →Episode 80: The Conspirator arrives on 1/13. Robert Redford wasted resources making a movie about Mary Surratt, a traitor who supported slavery, and we are not impressed. #movies #historicaldrama Listen to previous episodes of Biopic: A Podcast Story here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...
neutral · AI labelView post →I was an extra on the set of the Redford-directed film “The Conspirator.” If you’ve never done film work, it’s a ton of hurry up and wait. So, dressed in Civil War era garb, me and a friend, with ten feet between us, began making faces at each other. 1/3
neutral · AI labelView post →Biopic: A Podcast Story presents Episode 80, The Conspirator. We appreciated Robert Redford as a champion for #filmmaking, but found some of his directorial choices baffling, beginning with the decision to make this mediocre #movie.

neutral · AI labelView post →I like Norman Reedus. Daryl and Carol were my favorite Walking Dead characters. He had a small, but consequential part in the movie The Conspirator.
neutral · AI labelView post →THE CONSPIRATOR (2010) Mary Surratt. Co-conspirator in Lincoln's assassination? Robin Wright good performance Lighting feels like a reenactment video Robert Redford's film shows plenty of gray. The rush to judgment outweighs the need for a fair trial. Still timely it seems
neutral · AI labelView post →@davechen.bsky.social @devindra.bsky.social re Manhunt, there was a Robert Redford movie about 15 years ago, The Conspirator, that left me similarly gob-smacked to realize the assassination was a coordinated coup attempt and not just a lone gunman. 💯 crazy that this is not taught in school!
positive · AI labelView post →yeahhh, THE CONSPIRATOR can be a bit infuriating on that front. not his best film as a director, but also not his worst either!
neutral · AI labelView post →he's in ENDGAME for two mins and it's the only good part in the film, so you're not missing anything. you've certainly watched more than i have, i still have quite a few left (too many to name here). also, THE CONSPIRATOR is kind of boring, but the acting is pretty good. not his best, tho

neutral · AI labelView post →Just saw one of his movies last night - The Conspirator. Great movie and I highly recommend it!
positive · AI labelView post →I’m sorry to ask, but why did he not maintain his game as director? Quiz Show is extremely well crafted with A game performances from everyone. Even The Horse Whisperer is technically outstanding…then the civics lesson Lions for Lambs and the glorified TV movie The Conspirator.
negative · AI labelView post →Andrew Johnson was later to directly pardon with his signature some 7,000 Confederates, but he let Widow Surrratt hang. Check out ROBERT REDFORD's film... THE CONSPIRATOR. Guilt by association? The poor roommate has cooperated with our FBI and police. Speculative rumors on the Right abound.
neutral · AI labelView post →He had a small part in The Conspirator where he shone, great movie
positive · AI labelView post →The Conspirator is an interesting film about Mary Surratt - charged in the conspiracy to assassinate Abraham Lincoln. Has an amazing cast and Robert Redford is a great director. But it is slow and that’s probably its biggest downfall.
neutral · AI labelView post →Honestly, as a fan of legal movies, you're right, and I feel like a movie like that would be such a breath of fresh air. The Conspirator (2010) illustrates that this plot structure can work well, but its historical nature means it doesn't feel as salient to modern injustices.
