SPOILER ALERT if you've never seen Deliverance and plan to!

Hey, I already stipulated that Reynolds was a hottie . . . further, deponent sayeth not! ;)

Seriously, I saw Deliverance in college, and that is the only time in my life I have ever fainted.

It was (of course) the squeal-like-a-pig scene, and I am told that my eyes went up in my head and I slithered out the bottom of the desk and hit the floor like a bag of wet hair.

I woke up with most of my head in the fountain outside the building, and two well-meaning classmates doing their best to drench me. I got up, walked back in, and saw . . . Burt Reynolds' compound fracture, and almost fainted again.

That's a great story. Thanks for sharing.

I don't know why, but I never got around to seeing this movie. I read the book decades ago and don't remember all the details now.
