Re: Burt Reynolds has passed away

We bought our 1977 black Trans Am solely because of that movie.  Very sad.

This makes me so sad.  He was really one of a kind.  A great actor. I'll never forget when he posed in Cosmopolitan.  OMG.  He was so HOT!  He seemed so frail over the past few years.  I read he had open heart surgery sometime back. We'll always love you, Burt.  Rest in peace.

Re: Burt Reynolds has passed away

Many of his movies weren't our favorite genre. But my husband and I loved the short-lived TV series "Evening Shade." But then anything with Charles Durning was worth watching.

Re: Burt Reynolds has passed away

He was so handsome and very talented. Unfortunately some of his movies did not make the best use of his talent. Of course everyone knows about Deliverance, but my favorite movie is Starting Over with Jill Clayburgh and Candice Bergen. I fell in love with him in that movie.

Re: Burt Reynolds has passed away

I remember in the '70s he had a long love affair with Dinah Shore.  She was 58 and he was 39 at the time.

Re: Burt Reynolds has passed away

So sorry to hear of Burt's passing...he was a great actor and very handsome in his day.  I just saw him in an episode of the Golden Girls the other night...he was so suave and charming...he had that sparkle in his eyes!  Thanks for all the memories, Burt.  You were one of a kind!!
