The way we remember Robert Redford

If you will analyze it, the movie “The Way We Were” is not really a love story.

- BABY A. GIL

Released in 1973, when it became the year’s highest grossing film, it is about this strongly opinionated Jewish girl who is an activist for peace and other social causes.

She falls in love, but rather than see herself lapse into the role of a rich, quiet wife in glamorous Hollywood, she returns to the streets and so ends her marriage. Now, now, that is no great plot for a love story.

So then, why is “The Way We Were” known as one of the great romantic movies of all time? It acquired its love story label because of Robert Redford. Anything on the screen will be romantic with Redford in it. Redford was an American actor and director. Born on Aug. 18, 1936, he passed away last Sept. 16 at the age of 89 in his beloved home in Utah.
