Robert Redford, ‘Butch Cassidy’ and ‘All the President’s Men’ Icon, Dies at 89​

Robert Redford, the leading man with the golden-boy looks who won an Oscar for directing “Ordinary People” and later became a godfather for independent film as founder of the Sundance Film Institute, has died. He was 89....

The actor-turned-director — who had a stellar run in such films as “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,” “The Way We Were,” “The Sting,” “Three Days of the Condor” and “All the President’s Men” — had worked less frequently both in front of and behind the camera in recent years.

His last on-screen acting job was in “Avengers: Endgame,” in which he reprised his role as Secretary Alexander Pierce and joined several other Marvel vets such as Michael Douglas and Tilda Swinton...Read more

Sad! Butch Cassidy is one of my Top 3-5 movies. Loved the duo there and in the Sting. He was a great man who do many good things with his life! RIP Sundance!

Some iconic roles, he will be remembered as a Hollywood icon for many years. I saw him walking on Park Avenue in NYC many years ago. He was carrying cases which looked like film cases. It was around the time he was making "Ordinary People". He was skinny as heck with a big head. It was a little weird but I guess it was the right look for cameras.

Loved him in 3 Days of the Condor. But there were a few movies I liked him in.

RIP, Mr. Redford.

RIP Mr Redford...

I grew up wanting to be Jeremiah Johnson. Such an amazing actor. Starting out on Broadway with Barefoot In The Park and then on to amazing film roles with Butch Cassidy And The Sun Dance Kid, The Natural, Out Of Africa, and Three Days Of The Condor. Then to directing with films like A River Runs Through It and the founding of Sundance. He left his mark on film, the environment, and how to build a legacy.

Most of his movies were before my time, but he was great in The Last Castle. Kind of a dumb movie, but super entertaining.

Man, guess I'm getting old too. Knew he was old, but not 89 years old. Time flies fast. Atleast, he lived a full life

RIP Robert.

Him and Gandolfini carried the movie with their performances. Both were awesome.

3 days of the Condor is my favorite of the many films of his that I enjoyed.

 

[Khartun]

Man, now I need to watch Butch and Sundance. RIP.

 

[SMASHMOUTH9473]

My favorites were of him in the movies Jeremiah Johnson and Brubaker.

 

[Runwildboys]

I always wanted to see a comedy, with him playing Brad Pitt's father.

Legend.
