HOLLYWOOD-legend Robert Redford and Brendan Gleeson have teamed up in a new thriller, which is soon to open in the US.
In All the President's Men, Robert Redford famously played a reporter hunting clues that led to President Richard Nixon's downfall. In The Company You Keep, the Oscar winner is the one who is hunted by a journalist, this time played by Shia LaBeouf.
Unlike the 1976 account of the Watergate scandal, The Company You Keep is a fictional thriller based on a 2003 novel by Neil Gordon, and follows a former leftwing American militant whose past comes back to haunt him.
Redford plays Jim Grant, a respectable lawyer and widower with a young daughter whose life is thrown into turmoil when his secret identity, as a member of The Weather Underground decades earlier, is revealed by a tenacious reporter.
