The famous line Your girl is lovely, Hubbell is said by a minor character in the final scene of the 1973 film The Way We Were starring Barbra Streisand as Katie Morosky and Robert Redford as Hubbell Gardiner. The line is spoken by a character who sees Katie with her child and new husband after her divorce from Hubbell, during the bittersweet chance meeting in front of the Plaza Hotel in New York. In that final scene, Hubbell is with his new girlfriend and Katie is with her child and new husband, and they exchange a brief, emotional conversation. As they part, someone comments on Katie's daughter, saying Your girl is lovely, Hubbell, acknowledging that the child is Hubbell's daughter from his marriage to Katie. This line is significant because it highlights that Hubbell has a daughter he is not raising and that Katie has moved on to a new life, while still carrying a piece of their past. The line underscores the film's themes of lost love, time passing, and the lasting impact of their relationship. The exact speaker is often remembered as a bystander or friend in the scene, but the line is famous among fans of the film for its poignant reminder of what Hubbell left behind.
