That was a fascinating movie.
Burt Reynolds did his best acting.
Deliverance really surprised me when I finally got around to watching it. It was a much deeper film than I was expecting. I sort of had it in my mind it was going to be a basic summer action flick or something. I was way off on that count, obviously. The ending scene in that movie gives me chills to this day.
And I agree, Burt did some of his very best acting in Deliverance!
