Robert Downey Sr.

pemeran laki-laki asal Amerika Serikat

Robert John Downey Sr. (nama lahir Robert Elias Jr.; 24 Juni 1936 – 7 Juli 2021)[2] adalah pemeran, sutradara, produser, penulis naskah, dan sinematografer Amerika Serikat serta ayah dari pemeran Robert Downey Jr. Ia dikenal karena menulis dan menyutradarai film bawah tanah Putney Swope, sebuah sindiran mengenai dunia periklanan New York Madison Avenue. Menurut pakar film Wheeler Winston Dixon, film-film karya Downey Sr. semasa dasawarsa 1960-an adalah skandal tanpa kompromi dengan anggaran minimal dan sindiran yang keterlaluan dengan secara efektif mendorong agenda kontra-budaya saat itu.[3]

Kehidupan masa kecil

sunting

Robert Elias Jr. lahir di Manhattan, Kota New York dari pasangan Elizabeth (née McLauchlen) yang bekerja sebagai model dan Robert Elias Sr. yang bekerja di bidang manajemen motel dan rumah makan.[2] Kakek-nenek dari pihak ayah adalah orang Yahudi Lituania,[4] sedangkan ibunya adalah keturunan berdarah campuran Yahudi Hungaria dan Irlandia.[5][6][7][8][9] He grew up in Rockville Centre, New York.[10] Dia mengubah nama keluarganya menjadi Downey (mengikuti ayah tirinya James Downey) ketika dia ingin mendaftar di Angkatan Darat Amerika Serikat saat masih di bawah umur.[9][11] Downey kemudian mengatakan dia menulis novel yang tidak diterbitkan selama waktunya di tentara, meskipun menghabiskan sebagian besar karier militernya "di benteng."[10]
