The world was devastated around this time last year to learn of the tragic passing of Robert Redford, who spent the better part of 60 years as one of the most important actors in Hollywood. During his early years, Redford rose to fame thanks to his roles in films such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the 1969 film written by William Goldman and directed by George Roy Hill. Redford earned his first Oscar nomination in 1974 for his leading performance in The Sting, and less than 10 years later, he won the Academy Award for Best Director for his work on Ordinary People. This would have been Redford’s only Oscar were he not given an honorary Oscar back in 2002 for the many great movies he gave to the world over the years.
