I haven’t seen all of Burt’s movies, but I did like:

Deliverance (a classic)
Best Friends (the two sets of parents and Ron Silver as Larry the producer were hilarious)
Sharky’s Machine (great jazz soundtrack)
Paternity
Rough Cut (loved David Niven)

He and Sally Field should have found a good dramatic movie to make together back in their heyday.

Have never attempted to see all of his movies, but have seen a few. Best friend back in the 1970’s had the hots for Reynolds. Burt and Roger Moore were two of her favorites. Deliverance —not Reynolds fault, but the movie left me cold. Certainly not my kind of movie. Not even the scenery could save it. Remember seeing Cannonball Run, Smokey and the Bandit,WW and the Dixie Dance Kings, a movie using the location of Louisiana (Gator?). Plus a few others whose titles have been forgotten and too insignificant to attempt to remember. Burt’s star soon lost its shine and so was the interest. When watching his Evening Shade, it was found to be much more enjoyable than watching his movies. Perhaps ‘maturity’ helped in that aspect. :-/
