...former slave (Roosevelt Grier), now chief of the Tuscarora Indian tribe, gives ole Dan'l a hand in snatching a British cannon. "Rosy" will be back in other episodes. THURSDAY NIGHT MOVIES (CBS, 9-11:20 p.m.). Natalie Wood, Christopher Plummer, Roddy McDowall, Robert Redford and Ruth Gordon ramble through the Hollywood of the '30s in Inside Daisy Clover (1966). IT TAKES A THIEF (ABC, 10-11 p.m.). Fred Astaire also takes on a recurrent guest-star role as the retired master thief and father of Alexander Mundy (Robert Wagner). He gives his son a little assistance...

Many of the young stars are, in fact, anti-stars, who fight against the inducements and erosions of the big time. People like Olivia Hussey, Robert Redford and David Warner have nothing against fame, but they trade on it to gain freedom?the freedom to choose their roles and their directors. The once-desirable studio contract now looks like slavery...
BAREFOOT IN THE PARK. Jane Fonda and Robert Redford do well by Neil Simon's Broadway comedy about newlyweds settling down in a six-flight walkup...
