That sucks. Looked pretty frail the last decade or so.

He lived a long-life and I imagine he did a lot of living in that life - RIP

Burt Reynolds could act and its readily apparent if you watch Deliverance, one of the most underrated films of all time.

The rape scene in deliverance is the most sickening rape scene ever and yet nothing is shown at all.

He did a bunch of movies all over the place some serious like deliverance, but I think he enjoyed more the one that were comical like Smokey and the Bandit, I liked him in Striptease as the bumbling politician and my favorite was him and Dolly Parton in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas

Nobody mentioned The Longest Yard. Loved that film.

When Norm McDonald plays Burt in the game of Celebrity Jeopardy, on SNL chewing his gum, is quite the comical sketch play portraying him.

RIP, Burt Reynolds. Now you've got me searching movie data base for movies besides Deliverance, and Longest Yard.

I'm reminded of a joke from the past:

A flea goes to a travel agent to find a good vacation. The travel agent books him into Mick Jagger's hair.

A day later the flea comes back and complains, "Jagger's hair was always flopping around and the music was so loud I couldn't sleep." So the travel agent books the flea into Burt Reynold's mustache.

A day later the flea comes back again, and says, "Burt's mustache smelled like cigars." So the travel agent books the flea into Lonnie Anderson's pubic hair.

But the next day the flea shows up at the travel agent's again. The travel agent says, "What's the matter with you? You didn't like Lonnie Anderson's pubic hair?

The flea says, "It was great at first. I loved the view and the perfumed breeze and the blonde hair."

"Then," says the travel agent, "what's the problem?"

"Well," says the flea, "after the first night I woke up again in Burt Reynold's mustache."

Now you've got me searching movie data base for movies besides Deliverance, and Longest Yard.

How about the movies The Cannonball Run and The End. The TV show Evening Shade.

Definitely an icon! One of my favorites that has not been mentioned yet was Hooper, his tribute to stuntmen, and another great collaboration with Hal Needham.

RIP Burt Reynolds. He acted in some great films. The list of his memorable performances is long - and brings back some great memories.

He lived a good long life - and did lots of living in that long life too! I’m sure the stories he hasn’t told - are even wilder than the stories he has!
