Redgrave ‘confused’ by Neeson’s turn in The A-Team

Neeson was married to Redgrave’s daughter Natasha Richardson before her untimely death last year (09).

He has remained close to Richardson’s family and took her mother and their two sons for a day out to watch his action film.

But classical actress Redgrave struggled to understand what was going on in the blockbuster.

Neeson explains, “I went to see the film with my two boys and my mother-in-law. Three-quarters of the way through, I asked her, ‘Vanessa, are you following it?’ She said, ‘I am a little bit confused – but I love every second of it!’

“We all loved it and I guess I got a little bit of cred (credibility) with my boys.”
