AWS Route 53 / S3 Bucket Redirect All to One URL

I'm trying to do the following with AWS Route 53 and S3 based on some other articles I've found:

oldsite.com/* to newsite.com/page

I'd like to redirect all of oldsite.com and any path to the single url of newsite.com/page.

Both of the articles below are close, but they give me the following:

oldsite.com/* to newsite.com/page/*, which will likely result in newsite.com/404

For further clarification:

I don't want oldsite.com/foo to redirect to newsite.com/page/foo

I want oldsite.com/foo to redirect to newsite.com/page

Referenced articles that are giving me to the /* to /* instead of /* to /static.

Set up DNS based URL forwarding in Amazon Route53

Don't explicitly configure the bucket to redirect all requests to another host.

Configure the bucket for static web site hosting, then create a routing rule that matches 403 Forbidden (since S3 denies everything by default) and points where you want things to go. 

<RoutingRules>
 <RoutingRule>
  <Condition>
    <HttpErrorCodeReturnedEquals>403</HttpErrorCodeReturnedEquals>
  </Condition>
  <Redirect>
   <HostName>target.example.com</HostName>
   <ReplaceKeyWith>static</ReplaceKeyWith>
  </Redirect>
 </RoutingRule>
</RoutingRules>

All requests should redirect to http://target.example.com/static.

Note that the leading slash is omitted for <ReplaceKeyWith>.
