Glenn Close, the legendary Hollywood actress, recently took a trip down memory lane as she reflected on her greatest onscreen kiss. The 77-year-old star, known for her iconic roles in both film and stage productions, revealed that her most memorable smooch was with none other than the equally iconic Robert Redford.
It all started in the 1970s when Glenn rose to fame with her appearances on stage and in various television and Broadway productions. But it was in the 1980s when she truly made her mark with a string of successful films. After receiving critical acclaim and multiple award nominations for her role in the comedy-drama film The Big Chill, she went on to star in the 1984 sports drama, The Natural, alongside Robert Redford.
In the film, Robert plays the role of middle-aged baseball player Roy Hobbs, while Glenn portrays his love interest, Iris Gaines. The two share a teenage son, and their onscreen chemistry was undeniable. In fact, Glenn has described their kiss in the film as the best one she has ever filmed.
During a recent appearance on Watch What Happens, hosted by Andy Cohen, Glenn participated in the show's Plead the Fifth segment. When asked about her best onscreen kiss, she took a moment before answering, "Robert Redford. In The Natural." She then added that they only had one take, but clarified that they might have done two.
The Natural, based on Bernard Malamud's novel, was directed by Barry Levinson and also starred Robert Duvall, Kim Basinger, and Michael Madsen. The film received four Academy Award nominations, including one for Glenn's performance.
But it was her role as the bunny-boiling stalker in Fatal Attraction that truly skyrocketed Glenn's career. She became one of Hollywood's most iconic figures, starring in popular films such as 101 Dalmatians, Air Force One, and Guardians of the Galaxy.
Recently, Glenn shocked audiences with her chilling performance as a sinister grandmother in the Netflix horror film, The Deliverance. Some fans even speculated that her repeated Oscar snubs may have led her to take on such a dark role.
Despite never winning an Oscar, Glenn remains a highly respected and sought-after actress in the industry. She continues to take on challenging and diverse roles, including a recurring role in The Simpsons and her portrayal of JD Vance's grandmother in Hillbilly Elegy.
It's safe to say that Glenn Close's career has been nothing short of remarkable, and she shows no signs of slowing down. As fans eagerly await her next role, they can't help but wonder if she'll finally get the recognition she deserves from the Academy. But whether she wins an Oscar or not, one thing is for sure, Glenn Close will always be a Hollywood icon.
