Do you think retired actors watch their old movies?

Does Gene Hackman ever sit down and watch The French Connection? Does Robert Duvall watch Apocalypse Now every so often?

Nice thread.

I love to think they do.

I've wondered this actually about Marisa Berenson. She lives in Marrakech I think.

Why wouldn't you?

it may not mean that much to them. they might just see it as a job.

'The ball is over', Cardinale wrote after Delon's death, 'Forever your Angelica'

I think they could certainly watch them if they are so inclined.

And if they're not, they won't

Obviously some do and some don't. It entirely depends on the collective of experiences.

I’ve seen interviews with more than one star who have confessed to never having seen some of their most successful films.

Can't wait for the follow-up thread, "Do you think retired directors watch their old movies?"

What's wrong with this topic?

I'm just kidding!

Many don't.

i think it would be kind of difficult after you get to a certain age.

Yeah, I think you're right about that. Also like Gideon mentioned, I've read interviews with actors and a surprising number of them don't like to watch themselves on the screen.

Isn't Robert Duvall still working?

i am not sure. i had assumed he was at this point

I think it's sad that some actors don't get to see some great movies just because they don't want to watch their own movies.
