The actors have appeared in five movies together.

Jane Fonda stars in her fifth movie with Robert Redford, and admits that after all these years, he still makes her swoon.

"The only problem with working with Bob is I kind of look into his eyes and I kind of fall into his eyes and forget my dialogue," Fonda said of the 80-year-old actor on Monday's episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Fonda said this time around, she felt more mature when working with Redford. "I realize that I've grown up because in the three previous movies, I was always in love with him," she quipped. "I fell in love with him every time. So, if a day went by and he wouldn't speak to me, I always took it personally."

The Grace & Frankie star added, "Now, when he doesn't talk to me, I'm just like, 'Hey Bob, come on.'"
