In a 2017 interview with The Guardian, she didn’t hold back either: “And I was always in love with Robert Redford – I made three films with him and nothing happened because I was married and he was married.”

And in a rare joint interview, she remembered the first time she ever laid eyes on him. As Redford walked down the corridor of an administration building, secretaries rushed out of their offices just to watch him pass. Fonda instantly knew he was destined for stardom: “There was nobody more gorgeous than him.”

For his part, Redford never hid his admiration for her either. While promoting Our Souls at Night, he described Fonda as “a force,” adding: “It is an admirable quality and I think, very few people have it like Jane does.”
