Actor and director Robert Redford has passed away at the age of 89. Some of you may remember one movie he directed about the Lincoln Assassination, "The Conspirator".

Was Mary Surratt guilty as charged?

And, why would Robert Redford make such a movie if he did not feel that she was innocent?

He was led to believe she was innocent

One movie critic wrote this - " Redford is more concerned with US govt 'injustice' than actual guilt of Lincoln Assassination Conspirator" (from IMDB.com)

Personally, I didn't find it interesting enough to sit straight through watching it for 2 hours.
