Robert Redford - Actor, liberal activist is dead

Check out The Last Castle. Great Movie.

Also a very handsome man. No homo

Good actor. Horrible politics.

Bye Sundance Kid

89 is a good run. He seemed ageless for so long. Was on many "most handsome" lists for many, many years. While not the actor that his Butch and Sundance partner, Paul Newman, was, was really solid in roles that fit him. He was almost the sort of bridge between Spencer Tracy/Jimmy Stewart and Tom Hanks. He was perfect in those same sorts of roles, at least the dramatic ones (all of those others were better at comedy, it must be said, while Redford was obviously more traditionally handsome).

Obviously he is better known to younger audiences because of his association with the Sundance film festival, but there was a solid period where he was big Hollywood's go to "hunk" leading man - like 15 years.

(ETA: I largely did not agree with his politics.)

Out of Africa is one of the most beautifully shot films in cinematic history. I could watch that movie for the scenes and the score and edit out the dialogue and it would be captivating. He's ok in that and ok in the Sting. Other than that kind of blah.

JJ and the Natural were tops.

Why are liberals/hollywood stars so bat shite crazy and hate conservatism?

Because they think they are better than everybody else.

Wait for all the right wingers praising his death wait for it…………….

Spy Game with Brad Pitt was underrated imo.

First off, sorry for his family and friends. I never really had anything against him one way the other, but I can’t say I ever cared for him much either because I thought he was a bit too full of himself, but I suppose that’s par for the course in Hollywood.
