Smokey and the Bandit moved car culture 45 years ago this summer.
According to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the “Best Picture” of 1977 is Woody Allen’s Annie Hall. That’s nuts. No one cares about that movie., before George Lucas started digitally screwing with it, and longtime stuntman Hal Needham’s. Neither were films their respective studios figured would make much money. But both revived genres once thought moribund. They have each effectively burrowed into the culture. And, 45 years later, they continue to be ludicrously entertaining.
The complications come in the form of Carrie “Frog” who is fleeing her wedding to Junior Justice and his father the obsessed Sheriff Buford T. Justice . A pursuit across the south ensues.Hal Needham/Smoke and the Bandit“It was a bit of a lark when I agreed to do it,” Reynolds recalled in 2015, “and I knew we'd have fun if we could get Gleason. But then we got Sally on board and it changed the entire dynamic.
Reynolds is at max charm in the blocker black Trans Am, Fields is super-cute, Reed brought great music and astonishing guitar picking in addition to his truck driving, and Gleason supplies most of the hilarity. The stunt work is solid and Mike Henry deserves some love too. Though it’s not like the critics loved it.
“This is a movie for audiences capable of slavering over a Pontiac Trans Am, 18-wheel tractor-trailer rigs, dismembered police cruisers and motorcycles,” wrote
