[@banishedfromthedwarfplanet530]

The director of "Deliverance" summed up Burt as opposed to most other actors very succinctly. John Voight wanted a 15 minute warning on the set of Deliverance before the camera rolled so he could run around and make himself out of breath and sweaty if an intense scene was about to be shot. Burt Reynolds said, "give me a 30 second warning." He then spritzed himself with water to simulate sweat, and started breathing hard, pretending to be out of breath to shoot the same scene that Voight needed the 15 minutes of preparation for. RIP Burt Reynolds. There will never be another like you.

[@tomservo5347]

I guess it's 'method acting' versus actual acting chops.

[@johnbonaccorsi5378]

Georgia state parks ruined the experience. Still beautiful though.

[@desertweasel6965]

The real reason a lot of people question why Burt never became a career super star is, because he was always casted in horrible movies. Once you put him in the right movie you could see his true acting skills. Like Deliverance, he needed movies that allowed him to show his skills. Smokey and the Bandit didn't do him justice.
