Another star has left us. Now in the form of the iconic Burt Reynolds who was 82. A charismatic actor undoubtedly, he had a fine run of movies. And one can’t forget that famous moustache. So rest in peace Burt Reynolds, you’ll be missed.
Other than ‘Deliverance’, I didn’t really rate him that much. But he seemed to always be enjoying himself, and came across as a nice guy in interviews. Shame about the wigs! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
There will never be another Burt Reynolds. The man is a legend as he always made us laugh as well as be someone we can root for. It’s a shame he never really understood how gifted he was as an actor and was unable to appreciate what he was able to do in Boogie Nights which I think is his crowning achievement. A true Southern gentleman who will be missed. Thank you Burt.

I always enjoyed Smokey and the Bandit as a kid. I didn’t watch a lot of Burt Reynolds movies, but I was sad to hear he has passed on.

Yes, he had that likeable image that you couldn’t help but smile at. And no one rocked a moustache like he did.

Not an actor I’ve seen many films of, but he came across as charming and fun, and someone who seemed to care about the people who watched his films.
