& Sons


Opposites attract when, during their college days, Katie Morosky (Barbra Streisand), a politically active, mouthy Jew, has an unrequited crush on Hubbell Gardiner (Robert Redford), the clever, WASPy all-American campus idol for whom everything comes too easy.
Years later, in the wake of World War II, they meet again and, despite their obvious differences, marry. Against the backdrop of the Macarthy witch-hunts their personal styles and ideologies clash once more and Katie's activism becomes uncomfortable her husband and his screenwriting career.
The two leads have wonderful chemistry. Redford is impossibly handsome and glows on screen, and Streisand is magnificent and beautiful as the feisty campaigner. While being a romantic film, in longtime Redford friend and collaborator Sydney Pollack’s hands, it is so much more and it evokes brilliantly the jittery paranoia pervading Hollywood at the time of the Blacklists. A rare chance to see this classic on the big screen
