When a nervous Ethan Hawke first met Robert Redford, Redford offered guidance that left a lasting impression. Ethan shared this story at Celebrating Sundance Institute: A Tribute to Founder Robert Redford, showing how one moment of encouragement can change everything. #EthanHawke #RobertRedford #IndieFilm #FilmTok

Heatherwick is no longer doing the BT Tower. Shame, this would have been useful background:

"It wasn’t always so. Heatherwick will forever have a place in the British public imagination as a sort of court designer to his vanity-project-mad London mayoral patron, Boris Johnson. This marriage of mayhem became associated with pricey, unrealistic visions: the Routemaster revival buses – a sweet idea, had Transport for London allowed their windows to open and the budget to pay conductors – and the garden bridge that never was."

"His creative upbringing and private schooling (including at a Steiner school in Hertfordshire) perhaps bred in him the magnetic mix of English eccentric and establishment operator that persuades investors to part with their cash."
