The film 'People I Know' was directed by Robert Redford.

What we found

Contradicts. Wikipedia and IMDb both credit Daniel Algrant as the film's director.[1][2]

Contradicts. The LA Times review names director Dan Algrant and says the film was written by Jon Robin Baitz.[3]

Contradicts. Apple TV and RTE list Daniel Algrant as director, and the Cinematografo page gives 'Regia: Daniel Algrant'.[4][5][6]

Contradicts. The Rotten Tomatoes cast and crew page lists Daniel Algrant as Director and Robert Redford only as Executive Producer.[7]

Context. An Italian review from 2002 describes the film as 'Prodotto da Robert Redford' (produced by Redford), which is consistent with his producing role rather than directing.[6]
