@Tash21 They did clash on the set a few times. Paul was really young & didn't give Burt enough respect for where he'd been & done in t/business. Therefore, Burt was rubbed the wrong way by someone who was a baby by comparison. However, they both admitted to their faults of behavior & found great respect for one another. Paul did state he felt t/strain between them got a better performance out of Burt. Burt realized he was wrong to think this "kid" didn't know anything. Has a chapter about PTA in his 2nd book. PTA also asked him to be in his next project "Magnolia" but Burt turned it down. Another HUGE career mistake on Burt's part, in my opinion. Burt had a long history of turning down parts he shouldn't have. Too damn stubborn for his own good! RIP BR.

I remember watching him on win lose or draw in the 80's when he and Loni hosted it on their ranch, and appeared on the show over the years.

I wish he really would've been able to embrace this as one of his best performances (although I heard he did come around to it towards the end of his life). That being said I still wish he would've won the Oscar too.

What a humble man. Even when he was a box office star he seemed not to take his self too seriously.

He was far from humble, let me tell ya :) There's a story of him getting on the Blade Runner set back in the day demanding to know why the lead role wasn't his! He was a nutter, but that stuff carries onto the screen and makes these guys compelling to watch. Same with Robert Mitchum. A great example is Sterling Hayden. If you don't know him off hand, he played General Ripper, the mad Army officer who is about to kick off WW3 in DR Strangelove. He also played the corrupt Police chief Al Pachino shoots in The Godfather. He has a unique presence on screen and in real life he was a total nutter! Just check out some old interviews with the man. Calling him an eccentric is a vast understatement!

Why would it be all over the newspapers? Has what happened with Harvey Weinstein (not to mention all the other Hollywood related stories) taught you nothing? Have you been on a film set? Then how would you have any possible idea how a story would get from a film set to a newspaper? Stories are kept hushed all the time. Until you have a valid question based on something other than your cognitive dissonance, don't bother me. @@coldwinter5710

Well, it's all relative to the competition too. Reynolds was the front runner for Boogie Nights for several months, but Good Will Hunting came out right before Christmas and people were really drawn to Robin Williams' performance. I actually think the right actor won that year, but both were worthy.

At least he won the Golden Globe Award for his incredible performance as Jack Horner in that great film called *BOOGIE NIGHTS.* It was one of many great performances in a truly amazing film. R.I.P. Burt.

Burt was an awesome guy. Voted sexiest man alive, and he thought it was hilarious. A really down to earth, lovable guy, with an absolutely great sense of humor... Love and miss you Burt! A true American classic.

He was still handsome here.

he looks so amazing here. 24 years ago. wow. RIP Burt

Wow. It's remarkable how fondly he speaks of PTA and the other actors, since there are a lot of stories floating around (mostly from the actors/crew members themselves) about Reynolds having a lot of fights on set, and not "fitting in" with the tight group of actors. Reynolds recently stated he hated working with PTA and had never even seen the film all the way through. So his acknowledgement in this speech comes as a surprise to me.

It's unfortunate he was so hung up on this role's character and didn't enjoy the work he did more. He was too concerned what his older fans might think of it instead of understanding there was a whole new generation of fans out there waiting for him. He needed to get over the subject matter of the film and embrace being a great "actor" in it! As a result, he didn't do a lot of press for the film and I believe it cost him the Oscar he deserved that year. Very sad for him. PTA also admitted he was pretty cocky directing the film and handled things poorly with Burt. Burt also wrote a nice segment about this role and PTA in his final book.

Brilliant film classic R l P burt Reynolds

I love this guy....a real man in in a country full of What Arnold said"A generation of "girlie boys"

Burt definitely should have one the Oscar for Boogie Nights and Deliverance. The Hollywood decision makers didn't like him bc he called them out on their absurdities.

An interesting tidbit...A critics award out of Palm Beach actually gave this award to Rupert Everett! What a complete joke! Burt won the NY AND LA critics award, among several others, and Palm Beach (where he grew up) doesn't give it to him?! He must have found some serious humor in that one. The Academy, whom Burt felt never liked him, just couldn't find a way to give it to him either. A real shame...he deserved it that year.

He still looked good here. Only ten years later he was in very bad shape and now of course, he's gone. Hard to believe.

Burt Reynolds, The last of the Great motion picture stars, who had such Class!

All the actors were reserving of winning that year. However, Burt Reynolds deserved to win. He should of won an Academy Award for his role. Fantastic acting

Great movie!! ↑↑

Soon after this Reynolds was nominated for the Academy Award and went on a promotional tour w/ PT Anderson. Reynolds disliked the director and Boogie Nights, putting forth little effort campaigning for the Oscar that he ironically wanted badly to win. He also quit a big role in Anderson's next film "Magnolia", playing a TV game show host w/ a very dark past.

Damn, what a category that year!!!

Wow lush speech sincere 100%

He.made movies for us not for the awards. He certainly deserved a couple though

this also reminds me of how beautiful Lauren Bacall was

Burt was in two minds about the subject matter of the film and didn't want upset or alienate his older fans, he was kind of loyal that way

Boogie Nights was the most original movie that year. Good Will Hunting wasnt bad. It just never held my attention.

Wow didn't know..Assumed that went to Robin Williams cause he got the subsequent Oscar...Well Golden Globes voting is International...So speaks higher volumes anyway than Oscars....

RIP Burt Reynolds AND Lauren Bacall

5 actually. Those 2 you mentioned, plus Good Morning Vietnam, Best TV Revelation for Mork and Mindy and one special award for Aladdin.

What a good looking man he was! And very interesting to.

One of the coolest men to ever walk the planet. Inspired casting by the brilliant P.T. Anderson.
