I’ve also just finished filming the role of Robert Brown in ‘Just William,’ which is due to transmit on BBC One at Christmas.
I was with Robert Preston in ‘Sly Fox.’
I have loved the Department of Justice ever since, as a young boy, I watched Robert Kennedy prove during the Civil Rights Movement how the department can – and must – always be a force for that which is right.
A key to McMaster’s thinking is his 1997 book, ‘Dereliction of Duty: Lyndon Johnson, Robert McNamara, the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Lies that Led to Vietnam.’
After a year of post-graduate research, I won an 1851 Exhibition scholarship to work at Oxford with Robert Robinson. Two such scholarships were awarded each year, and the other was won by Rita Harradence, also of Sydney and also an organic chemist.
I saw ‘Taxi Driver,’ and ‘Taxi Driver’ kind of saved my life. The scene where Robert De Niro is looking at himself in the mirror saying, ‘You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? Who the hell else are you talkin’ to?’ That’s the scene that changed my life by changing my attitude about acting.
I’ve been a fan of vampire fiction since way, way back – I loved Stephen King, Anne Rice, Peter Straub, Robert McCammon, Shirley Jackson, lots of great horror and paranormal fiction.
I had heard that Robert Duvall was interested in doing ‘Lonesome Dove,’ and he’s one of those actors with whom I’d work on any project. So I tracked down the script and started to bug the producer, Dyson Lovell, to get in there.
All I know is it was incredible watching Robert Downey Jr. bring Chaplin to life. Talk about weight-lifting!
I honestly think that with our generation – Alex Wang, Prabal Gurung, Jason Wu, Christian Cota, Robert Geller – there’s a different expectation of what our behavior should be. People expect designers to be good businesspeople and PR people, and I don’t think partying is a part of that persona the way it used to be.
I will never be a Robert De Niro or Meryl Streep, the kind of actor that disappears into a role.
I don’t know why there hasn’t been a ‘Spy Kids’ cartoon. You have to bring that up to Robert Rodriguez and see what he has to say. That would be an interesting thing to do with this series.
Robert F. Kennedy Juvenile Justice Collaborative was formed in 2009 to improve federal youth reentry policy through advocacy, coalition building, and giving voice to youth who are directly impacted by the justice system.
When I was a kid I really loved Humphrey Bogart. But when I was in theater school, Robert DeNiro was my go-to guy.
You can’t follow another actor’s performance. You can’t be Robert DeNiro, because you’re not Robert DeNiro, and, you know, he is.
So I told Robert from the start that if we couldn’t get Charles and Max to take part, but especially Charles, that I didn’t want to make the film. So would he call his mother and talk to Charles and see if Charles would at all be interested.
I loved Robert Altman, so gentle yet naughty! And Julian Fellowes writes so beautifully.
We also quoted Robert Luskin, Rove’s attorney, acknowledging that Rove did speak to Cooper late on the week prior to the article coming out, which would have been July 10 or 11.
When I was growing up and somebody like Robert De Niro had a movie come out, it was a cultural event. Because he had such a confidence and a single mission that was so intimate.
Arsenal are a special club for many French supporters. I watched them a lot, especially during the ‘Invincible’ era when they had Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira, Sylvain Wiltord, and Robert Pires.
Robert Preston in ‘The Last Starfighter’ had an aura. It was almost a surreal experience meeting him. He exuded charm, warmth and that movie star magnetism that is impossible to describe.
The truth is, I don’t have any problem with journalists – I count some of them as friends – also some of my heroes are journalists, I’m a big fan of Robert Fisk – great people or crazy people who are prepared to stand up for what’s right.
One will never again look at a birch tree, after the Robert Frost poem, in exactly the same way.
There’s an actor in the TV show ‘Prison Break,’ Robert Knepper, who plays a violent sociopath, and he’s just incredible in that role.
I Kenneth Robert Livingstone, having been elected to the office of mayor of London, declare that I take that office upon myself, and will duly and faithfully fulfil the duties of it to the best of my judgement and ability.
I didn’t have much ambition, but I always had an idea in the back of my mind that I wanted to act. I would watch actors like Robert Mitchum, Humphrey Bogart, and Kirk Douglas, and I understood them.
Robert Whittaker is definitely a different fighter from when I fought him last. His takedown defense is ridiculous – ridiculous – and his cardio is out there. Like, the guy does not get tired.
There’s a book that’s critical to understanding anxiety, a 17th-century book, ‘The Anatomy of Melancholy,’ by Robert Burton. I wanted to write something like that.
Would you care to publish this? Sincerely, Robert B. Parker.
I’ve been saying it all along: please do not demonise Robert Mugabe. I’m not saying the methods he’s using are correct, but he was put under great pressure.
Robert Jordan, whether he’s writing with passion or not, I don’t know.
You know, I really wish now I’d had the nerve to become an actor. Because I’d have been Robert Redford, no question.
Every star, whether it’s Harrison Ford or Robert De Niro, is remembered by one film. Persis is a star in the sky – how can a star be forgotten when all you have to do is look up and see her?
Let’s face it: Robert Plant is hot!
I was into Jimi Hendrix, Robert Johnson, the blues.
It was a complex endeavor so without Robert Redford’s constant support we wouldn’t have gotten to the end.
I loved ‘Life is Beautiful’ and action films are great, like ‘Die Hard.’ My favourite is the mob film – ‘Goodfellas,’ ‘The Godfather,’ ‘Once Upon a Time In America,’ anything with Robert De Niro in it.
The one report I will believe will be the report of Robert Mueller. He’s a totally impartial law enforcement investigator who will come to the truth, whether it was collusion or it wasn’t collusion. But when a partisan group puts together a report, it doesn’t really hold much credibility for me.
After touring the first album, we went into the studio and started making music that was influenced by all the freaky folk music we’d been listening to. Lots of Canterbury scene stuff from the 1960s and ’70s. Robert Wyatt, Soft Machine, Caravan, Gong.
I did Robert Pattinson’s first live interview for ‘Twilight’ and he was so nervous.
I love crossovers, I love Wonder Woman, and being able to bring the undisputed greatest warriors of the DCU and Robert E. Howard’s Hyborian Age together for the very first time is a dream come true.
What makes a star or a movie into a legend? I don’t know. For instance, when Robert Taylor and I made ‘Party Girl’ in 1958, nobody was particularly excited about it. Now, it’s considered by thousands to be a classic. There are ‘Party Girl’ cults.
I think Democrats made a mistake running away from liberalism. Liberalism, uh, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John and Robert Kennedy – that’s what the Democratic party ought to reach for.
Growing up, I really looked up to the classic Hollywood actors like Spencer Tracy, Robert Mitchum, and Peter Falk. I love character actors – I’ve never wanted to be the leading guy.
I think that there’s something that goes on for Robert Langdon where he has a hard time connecting with people.
There is absolutely no doubt that Robert Mugabe and ZANU-PF have lost the popular support of the people of Zimbabwe. And the more they become intransigent, the more they become vicious and try to repress people, the more it turns people against them, and the less chance they have of ever holding onto power.
Robert Fisk is my hero. In America, they think he’s a terrorist.
I think when you get Robert Griffin, one of the most explosive quarterbacks to ever play the position, in a Mike Shanahan-type system, the possibilities are very exciting, I think, with Mike Shanahan’s imagination.
Science fiction is a literary field crowded with strong opinions, and no SF novelist delivered himself more memorably of his views – on politics, sexuality, religion, and many other contentious topics – than Robert Heinlein.
I covered the Vietnam War. I remember the lies that were told, the lives that were lost – and the shock when, twenty years after the war ended, former Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara admitted he knew it was a mistake all along.
I want to be an Asian Robert De Niro.
The big stars I felt a kinship with were never the romantic leads. It wasn’t Steve McQueen or Robert Redford – it was people like Walter Matthau and Anthony Quinn. My big hero was Tommy Cooper.
I’m a journalist – I’m not Robert Caro. I have a day job, and a pretty consuming one – a joyfully consuming one.
I shoot a lot of film – that’s one of the things I try to do, and it’s one of the things I learned how to do with Robert De Niro on ‘Men of Honor.’
Growing up, I always looked up to males or comedians such as Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro. I also love Lucille Ball, from the show ‘I Love Lucy.’
