7.0***A radical Left-winger falls in love with a more conservative WASP on the verge of WW2 and post-war*** A disparate couple meets in college in 1937, New York, and then reignite after the war. Katie (Barbra Streisand) is an uber-Liberal while Hubbell (Robert Redford) is more levelheaded about politics. He becomes a writer in Hollywood during the blacklist investigations of the late 40s wherein Katie’s activism threatens his social life and career. The story closes in 1957. “The Way We Were” (1973) is a classic drama/romance, much acclaimed in its day. The vibe is similar to “Love Story”…
