Previous Screening: "GATOR"





GATOR
1976
Starring: Burt Reynolds, Jerry Reed, Lauren Hutton.
Directed by: Burt Reynolds

Burt plays Gator McCluskey - a fast-drivin' shine-runnin' ladies man with hella 'stache. This role is very different from other Burt characters in that his name is in this film is "Gator." This role is a reprisal of one he played in the first edition - 1973's "White Lightning."
Jerry Reed is a bad, bad man in this film - sideburns down to his jaw and afro picked out like a football helmet.
Hal Needham's touch is all the film. In typical Needham fashion the 2nd Unit Direction is as tight as it gets.

STANDOUT DIALOGUE: "Would you settle for a Rotary Club football trophy and a hump in the swamp?"

Check here for what some other folks thought of the movie.

ATTENDING:
Natalie, Julia, Colin, Wick, Will, Henry, Stephanie, Casey.
