05.28.07Netflix Quintessential Burt Reynolds is a dude who makes a deal with the feds to get out of jail to exact revenge on a dirty sheriff for killing his hippie brother. I liked a couple things in particular about this good ol' boy movie: the sweat and the hippie-hate. Some wonderful dialogue on dirty hippies smokin pot and growin their hair long... and everyone's soaking through their shirts with sweat for the whole movie. no one sweats in movies anymore... it makes me feel bad when I sweat and I sweat a lot so that sucks.

I also liked Bo Hopkins and Ned Beatty in their roles. pretty good movie.
