FILM SERIES
With the death of Robert Redford in September 2025, the film community lost an artist who had an indelible effect on the art and commerce of the medium. His acting career alone would have been remarkable, appearing in 50 films over a sixty-year span, including four Best Picture nominees. But his only Oscar was earned for his introduction behind the camera, as the director of Ordinary People.
Over another four decades, Redford produced and directed films of thoughtful insight. And yet, his most lasting impact may be felt through his founding and nurturing of the Sundance Film Festival in 1978, and its associated programs, providing a spotlight and fostering for independent filmmaking.
A collaboration between The Dryden Theatre and The Little Theatre, this fourteen-film retrospective recognizes just some of the highlights of this storied career.
