The introduction to a river runs through it is an interesting read. I never realized how much creative influence Redford had over the production of the movie until I read it a few months ago.

"All is Lost" (2013) funny enough got me interested in offshore sailing in my late teens. Incredible performance by Redford, first film that really left an impression on me. There is only one or two lines of dialogue in the entire film. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2017038/ https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/all-is-lost-2013

Came here to say this. Incredible movie.

Oh no - we’ve lost a great defender of democracy and the environment. Throughout his personal life and professional film career, he consistently sought to spotlight government, corporate, and military-industrial corruption while shining a light on the importance of democracy. The world has lost a remarkable person!

Do yourself a favor and watch some of his most important movies that represented his ideology "Truth", "Brubaker", "Sneakers" or "Spy Game".

"Sneakers" is such an entertaining watch for anyone that's never seen it. Well worth your time. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105435/

My first thought when I saw his name. I love many of his movies but Sneakers has to be my favorite!
