Mrs. Peel 7,157 Posted September 6, 2018 Yeah, I just saw that on cable. Now, a lot of you won't like this opinion... but that guy starred in more ridiculously STUPID movies than you could shake a stick out. Smokey and the Bandit being right at the top (or is it the bottom?) of that list. However, he played the character "Lewis" in Deliverance... and that made it all worthwhile. Great movie. And he was perfect in that role as the rugged survivalist-minded outdoorsman. Best role of his career IMO. Rest in peace. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My apologies for insulting one of your favorites movies. I think that's just more of a "guy" movie. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But a lot of actors make really stupid movies and get paid really stupid money, because we go watch them and spend really stupid money.

Sota 1,191 Posted September 7, 2018 Quote "I always wanted to experience everything and go down swinging," he wrote in the final paragraph of his memoir. "Well, so far, so good. I know I'm old, but I feel young. And there's one thing they can never take away: Nobody had more fun than I did." R.I.P. Burt Reynolds 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
