Plot

One of Hollywood's greatest love stories with Streisand and Redford making a dashing, if unlikely couple. As college sweethearts they defy their all too obvious differences to be together, but, as the marriage progresses, Redford's easy success as a writer threatens to destroy the idyllic union. One of the most referenced final moments in film (see Sex and the City). A classic romance.
