 Kennedy Center: Biographical information for Robert Redford
A screen actor at the top of his career in 1980, Robert Redford felt it was time to give something back to the film business and so he founded the Sundance Institute, a multi-disciplinary arts organization dedicated to the development of artists of independent vision and to the exhibition of their new work.
His goal was to create a film community where directors, writers, actors and composers could realize their talent in an atmosphere of collaboration, where two basic freedoms were guaranteed: the freedom to have a singular vision and the freedom to experiment in putting that vision on film.
The revisionist Western was perfectly timed to ride the tail end of the anti-establishment cynical sixties, and gave Redford the anti-hero creed needed to become one of the biggest stars of the '70s.
