That movie changed my life. I was twelve when I went in to see it and two hours later I felt like I was fourteen. I remember telling my friends about it who hadn’t seen it who were captivated by the story. Powerful film.

Watch the execution rehearsal scene. He says something like, “and that’s that” as he demonstrates how to send the voltage to the condemned man.

His character was very strong. That's why they had to make him get injured. The party would have easily been able to deal with any of the challenges on the trip if this character had been fully functional.

Deliverance hits on so many levels. I forget I'm watching actors and extras and even James Dickey who wrote it and has a cameo. It's full of almost indescribable beauty if you've never been in an unspoiled wilderness area and then it just descends into a horror of loathing and death. Through it all the acting is top notch and ensemble - every actor carries his weight, but the interplay between Reynold's and Voight's characters is especially strong. You come out of it feeling like you've been lost in the woods with an unsettling dread that the malevolence there is still there, hidden and waiting.

Some folks don't know Burt did some 1950's westerns, he's been in Hollywood a long time, not a flash-in-the pan, broke the mold after he became a star, he had "moxie"!!

I used to mountain bike the areas and roads the used in the north Georgia mountains. I tried to go back and picture the scenes. You can still do it....but time is passing.....R.I.P Burt! Thanks for the ride......

His reference to "Cowboy" is his time working at Ghost Town in the Sky - a western themed park in North Carolina. I used to go there as a child, and there was also a movie titled Ghost Town - The Movie, which featured both "mountain men" from Deliverance. Bill McKinney - who was in some Clint Eastwood films, First Blood, Back the the Future Part III, The Green Mile, and others is the one that attacks Ned Beatty. Burt was here in Knoxville, TN recently with Chevy Chase filming THE LAST MOVIE STAR. Also, I worked at conference center in upstate New York for several summers, as did my aunt Hope. Looking through her "yearbook" from that summer - 1955 - I saw that she and Ned Beatty worked in the dining hall together. Anyway, just small info. The Cannonball Run blooper/outtakes is still some of the funniest stuff you can see!

To this day in 2021 this film is just as powerful to watch as it was back in the early 70’s. The two mountain men were just phenomenal in the film. Also the little boy playing the banjo. Burt’s best film.

The great thing about Deliverance is how it took Burt Reynold's alpha male image and turned it upside down. Here was a character that was all testosterone and macho, and he was the first to get injured and be saved by the "city dwellers". The movie showed no matter how tough you think you are, nature always wins!

Its tough seeing him like that. But hes still got some of his old power

The archer set up a target and said “Okay, Burt, shoot the target so I can get a look at your form and we’ll go from there.” Burt took a shoot at the target and hit the bullseye dead center. The archer packed up his gear and said “You don’t need me.”
