Let’s not beat about the bush. Burt was THE MAN. The ‘tache, the chest hair, the grin, the wise cracks… he had the lot.

What is your favourite Burt film?

For me it has to be Hooper.

I’ve put it on my Christmas list along with Smokie and The Bandit, but I’m not sure that the DVDs are available.

Smokie and the Bandit – – just a stupid film, love it.

deliverence – squeal little piggy, squeal!

Smokey and the bandit FTW.

(Which is available on DVD as I have literally just finished importing it into iTunes so I can watch it on the AppleTV – if it’s no longer available let me know)

Smokie & The Bandit, brilliant !

I saw Hooper for the first time the other night on TV and thought it was pretty good.

I prefer the first Smokey and the Bandit film though.

Available on Bluray apparently…

Deliverance

Boogie Nights & Deliverance

What about Canon Ball Run ??

Not only do you get Burt but loads and loads of other greats

Its got to be the Best Little Whorehouse in Texas?

Captain Chaos!!! 😀

+1 For deliverance and boogie nights.

Smokey and the bandit was made for children and folk who reside in trailers and feel wrestling is a fair and legitimate sport!
😉

Smokey & The Bandit can also be enjoyed by those who don’t have their head up their own arse or don’t think that Burt Reynolds movies are the best topic for a bit of intellectual snobbery.

On balance, though, I think I prefer Hooper.

is this you OP?

You go girl…,. Edshlong!

Deliverance – one of the best films ever made. None of his other films come close.

SATB.. back in the day it was the cult film we used to sit round drinking stubbies of belgian beer reciting lines from it..

And that’s nothin’ but pure and simple old-fashioned Communism.

I been chasin’ a goddamn maniac all the way from Texarkana, Texas.

The Mean Machine.

Although purists would dock it a star or two due to Burt’s clean upper lip…

What DezB said……

this river don’t go to Aintree boy

Deliverance and Boogie Nights – for the darker side.

Hooper and Cannonball Run – for the fun side.

Deliverance in terms of the movie itself, but Striptease for the boots, hat and vaseline thing.

Deliverance, Canon Ball Run & Smokie for me.

Sally Field…

“cough”

+1 smokey and the bandit. Also enjoyed dukes of Harvard, another hard-hitting doc.

Love all the usual ones mentioned but have a soft spot for “The End” with the ever fabulous Dom DeLuise.

Did anyone watch the “Gunsmoke” replays on TCM a few month back?
Had a young BR as the blacksmith, you wonder why he missed his way as a massive Hollywood “star”.

He didn’t, in the 70s he was the biggest star in town bar none.

Deliverance!!

I see your mean machine and raise you the longest yard. No, really. It’s the only one I’ve seen…

Hooper

Hooper. But not because of the moustachioed one. Sally Field in her prime.
