Robert Redford, the cinema star, trailblazer for independent film and the brains behind Sundance Film Festival, will be honored by Salt Lake Film Society with a monthlong retrospective honoring his renowned acting career.

Redford died at his home at his Sundance retreat in the mountains outside of Provo on the morning of Sept. 18. He was 89.

The retrospective, “Redford Remembered,” will celebrate the late actor’s life and film work, as well as his enduring impact on Utah’s film scene, by screening the most highly acclaimed movies of his career.

“Robert Redford’s artistry shaped generations of cinema-goers, both through his legendary acting roles and his visionary leadership as founder of Sundance Institute and the Sundance Film Festival,” said Tori A. Baker, president and CEO of SLFS.
