Sad news. By coincidence there was a double-bill of Smokey I and II on TV last night and I ended up watching them both again for the first time in many years, probably since I was a teenager. Still remember being in awe of the black T/A.....
I think Buford T Justice was the surprise star of those movies, but Reynolds was perfectly cast in the Bandit role. RIP.

I remember going to see Smokey and the Bandit when I was 7 years old with my Father in the cinema. Of course, being 7, I didn't get the humor in the movie but I do remember my father laughing so hard he was crying at some of the scenes.

RIP Burt....
