Remembering Robert Redford with Chris Cooper and Marianne Leone

Oscar-winner Chris Cooper and author/"The Sopranos" co-star Marianne Leone remember screen legend Robert Redford, in conversation exactly one year after his passing.

In remembering the two Redford films Chris co-starred in—"The Horse Whisperer" and "The Company You Keep"—the couple discusses how Chris pursued working with Redford and the unique experience of Chris playing the Hollywood icon's brother in both films. They dive into Chris's creative process of picking up Redford's cadences, Redford's immense generosity as both an actor and director, and a heartwarming look at how he treated their then 10-year-old son, Jesse. Pick up any of Marianne's books, including her coming-of-age novel "Christina The Astonishing".
