Overview
- Streisand closed the Oscars In Memoriam segment with a tribute to Redford, singing a portion of The Way We Were and sharing personal memories.
- Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the Vanity Fair afterparty, Fonda asked why Streisand was chosen and said she had "much more to say."
- Fonda noted she worked with Redford on four films across decades, while Streisand co-starred with him in a single, high-profile title from 1973.
- Coverage of Fonda’s remarks has intensified broader criticism of the In Memoriam segment, which social media users said omitted several names.
- Reports cited omissions including Brigitte Bardot, James Van Der Beek, Eric Dane, Bud Cort and Malcolm-Jamal Warner, as discussion continues.
