 This film marked the only time Redford would star with Marlon Brando.Fonda and Redford were paired again in the popular big-screen version of "Barefoot in the Park" (1967) and were again co-stars much later in Pollack's "The Electric Horseman" (1979), followed 38 years later with a Netflix feature, "Our Souls at Night".After this initial success, Redford became concerned about his blond male stereotype image and turned down roles in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"
