Burt Reynolds died last night at the age of 82.
More than just an actor, Burt was a one-man embodiment of a long lost era of CB radio jargon, orangutan chauffeurs, ill-fated canoe trips, elaborate car chases, swamp-based boat leaps, illicit moonshine, helicopter stunts, friendly elephants, stressed out sheriffs, bootleg beer, airborne Pontiacs, bar fights, Stetson hats and big moustaches.
Here’s a few old film posters mostly from the 70s. Have a quick scroll through these, fetch yourself a Coors and dust off that old Smokey and the Bandit VHS.
Rest in peace Burt.
