Robert Redford is an Oscar-winning director. Wait, I know you probably aren’t thinking about his directing with this list. You’re right, I should focus on his films because he has starred in quite a few of them. Here are the top 10 Robert Redford films.

Inside Daisy Clover is the story of a woman named Daisy (Natalie Wood) who wants to become an actress. She sends in a recorded song to a studio owner and she gets her wish.

The explanation for this movie is more complex than any of the others on this list, so I will try my best to give a quick Cliff’s Notes for it. Steve Rogers (Chris Evans), also known as Captain America, has to fight an assassin named The Winter Soldier. That’s short and sweet and to the point! Robert Redford plays S.H.I.E.L.D. official and the Secretary of International Security, Alexander Pierce.

Robert Redford plays Roy Hobbs, who is a great baseball player. Since he is middle-aged, it is hard to believe he is good at baseball, but he knocks it out of the ballpark almost every time, proving the nay-sayers wrong.
All the President’s Men (1976)
![All the President's Men](https://thequickreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Screenshot-2024-08-20-at-5.08.36 PM-1024x511.png)

All the President’s Men is the story of Bob Woodward (Robert Redford) and Carl Bernstein (Dustin Hoffman) who discover secrets about the Watergate break-in.

I can’t say much about The Sting without giving the movie away. I will give a very brief synopsis so you know what the movie is about but don’t know too much about it. The film is about two grifters (Paul Newman and Robert Redford) who work together to pull off a very good con.
