The Way We Were – Let's Go To The Movies

Sad news broke today that legendary actor Robert Redford passed away at the age of 89. A very well respected actor and director with a career spanning seven decades, taking on so many iconic roles, across many genres and in more recent years even being part of the Marvel Universe.

A true icon of cinema and so many memorable roles, he has been one of my favourite actors for many years and I feel as though the performances he delivers in All the President’s Men and The Way We Were being two of my favourites. His Oscar win came for best director for Ordinary People in 1981.

Rest in peace Robert ❤️

Well my original plan was to have this top 10 done and out on Valentine’s Day mainly because tragic love stories where people don’t end up together seem to be more of a reality than the rom-com’s with the whole cliché of they lived happily ever after the end. I decided to make a long list of possible films which I could have put in my top 10 list.

In the list you will find many different love stories but all a lot shorter than they should have been.

Casablanca, Gone with the Wind, The Bridges of Madison County, Splendor In The Grass, Titanic, Brokeback Mountain, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Romeo & Juliet, City of Angels, Ghost, Love Story, A Walk to Remember, (500) Days of Summer, Phantom of the Opera and The Way We Were.
