Barbra Streisand captured on film set alongside Robert Redford during "Pure Joy" productions
Robert Redford, one of the greatest actors of all time, passed away on Monday at his home in the US state of Utah. He was 89 years old. His spokesperson confirmed the sad news to dpa.
Redford was part of a new and exciting Hollywood in the 70s and 80s, as Stephen King commented. His death was mourned by many colleagues, friends, and fans, who paid tribute to him online. Meryl Streep called him 'one of the lions' of the industry.
One of Redford's most memorable roles was alongside Barbra Streisand in the film 'The Way We Were'. Streisand, who is 83 years old, shared a heartfelt remembrance of Redford on Instagram. She described the set of the romantic film as exciting, intense, and a source of joy.
'The Way We Were' is considered one of the greatest love stories in American cinema by 'Variety'. Streisand played Katie Morosky, and Redford played Hubbell Gardiner. The title song of the film, sung by Streisand, won an Oscar.
Redford and Streisand were different in some ways, but they tried to learn more about each other during the filming of 'The Way We Were'. Their time together on the set is the focus of a touching tribute.
Despite Redford's background involving horses, he was allergic to them. This fact did not seem to affect their on-screen chemistry, as their performances in 'The Way We Were' continue to captivate audiences to this day.
In conclusion, Robert Redford's death is a significant loss for the film industry. His legacy will live on through his iconic roles and the memories of those who worked with him, including Barbra Streisand.
