SUNDANCE, Utah — Maybe when you play Death on “The Twilight Zone” at the start of your career, mortality doesn’t faze you.

“It’s all part of the deal,” Robert Redford deadpanned.
He didn’t think about dying while he was making his new movie about it, J. C. Chandor’s melancholy mariner’s tale, “All Is Lost.” He thought about enduring.
“I’m interested in that thing that happens where there’s a breaking point for some people and not for others,” he said over morning coffee recently in the deserted Owl Bar at his resort here. “You go through such hardship, things that are almost impossibly difficult, and there’s no sign that it’s going to get any better, and that’s the point when people quit. But some don’t.”
