No sir.
In1973, Ned Beatty followed up his 1972 tour de force Deliverance performance in White Lightning bringing Burt Reynolds and Beatty together again on the big screen. Reynold holds his own in his role as Gator McKlusky as he shares the screen with Beatty, the greatest film actor of his generation.

Papillon was pretty good.
Live and Let Die came out that year.
And Westworld.

Ned Beaty lived in the California woods, and ground his own hamburger meat.
A Great American.
Everybody loved Gater McCluskey

Burt just wanted that "shakey puddin'"
1973 saw the release of the award winning Double Exposure, starring Johnny Wadd as a gynecologist posing as a fashion photographer, and Summer Knights as his firecracker secretary.
I was there . . . American Graffiti ruled popular culture, though Soyent Green and the other movies mentioned were good. That's when you could go to a drive in, and not watch the movie.
Edit: they say the Exocist is pretty scary. I never "saw" it

Exorcist may not have aged spectacularly, but it would still spook me a little if I watched it tonight.I was there . . . American Graffiti ruled popular culture, though Soyent Green and the other movies mentioned were good. That's when you could go to a drive in, and not watch the movie.

“You know what I’m gonna do, just for the hell of it?”The mold was broken two years earlier....
“I’m gonna take this, right foot, and wop you, on that side of your face”
“and you know what? There’s not a damn thing you’re gonna be able to do about it”
Bump.
Ned is dead.
Heaven’s stars are shining brighter tonight.
RIP

Prayers sent, Professor. I know he meant a lot to you. Can you share some of Ned's greatest hits this evening? Country Club had many in the vault but chose to dump them. Much brilliance lost forever.
