With a career spanning over 60 years, Robert Redford remains the ideal American actor: always effortlessly charming, but also thoughtful, curious, and grounded.
January's films each focus on a different facet of Redford's persona -- the Romantic Lead, the Social Conscience, the Homegrown Hero, and the Ringleader.
February wraps up this series with two of the most beloved buddy films ever made: his collaborations with the equally iconic Paul Newman, with the pair playing outlaws and con men, while remaining deeply, disarmingly likeable.

January 20: The Natural
Robert Redford becomes an American myth with his portrayal of Roy Hobbs, a baseball prodigy who, after a mysterious disappearance, returns later in life with one last shot at glory.
Redford radiates both confidence and melancholy as a homegrown hero whose talent is somehow both miraculous and deeply human, resulting in a nostalgic classic of sports cinema.
"Being a baseball fan involves repeatedly experiencing exquisite pain and exquisite joy. Well, there's a lot of both in The Natural." —Gene Siskel, Chicago Tribune
