classicguns4life Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Boy, just saw this film for the first time in years. No matter how many times you see it, it still lingers with you for several days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake-Pit Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I remember this film actually disturbed me when that guy got raped in the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR DOOM Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Its one of those movies where before you have seen it youre thinking its just about the bum secks in the woods cause that's all you ever hear about, just like you could be forgiven for thinking 2001 is all about HAL.

I remember before I saw it it was all these stories about it being sicker than you could ever think, which really isn't true. Psychologically, it really fucks with you, but the actual sick stuff is minimal. Also, the rape comes about an hour in, probably earlier, so its certainly not the climax. Everytime I watch it I come out thinking all this deep stuff, and thats certainly because of more than just the rape.Just out of curiosity, does anyone remember why this was such a starring vehicle for Burt Reynolds? I've been told this is what really put him on the map, yet he's really not in it all that much. At least he becomes pretty nonexistent in the second half. He's great for what he's in, I'm just surprised so many people would target him as the second star over Beatty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I don't think I've ever seen this, but I've seen Race with the Devil.Smokey and the Bandit really put Burt on the map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
