He never seemed to get credit for ANY of the humanitarian or charity work he did. Florida, Georgia, and the rest of the South is full of people that Burt helped out & provided for and their stories.

👍🏻🙏

He sounds wonderful.

And Jonathan Winters as well.

That was a good song that Bobby did.

Was he in Levenworth?

I was pondering as I watched what it meant to the family of these guys featured. Did he get out?

This was great thanks for sharing!

I was four. Met Burt at Walden books in Omaha Nebraska when he was making citizen Ruth. Nice man, and that laugh.

Burt has said Dinah was the love of his life

@@MrDuds1984 he said that about Sally Fields. He cheated on both of them.

He went after her though. So technically she wasn't really a cougar, but he was a boy toy.

Lovely couple

@Rob 'Muthafukkin' Holmes so what ever happened with him?? Did he get released??

At least some members of the crowd got up for her though

Once you are on the top there's nowhere else to go but down. Bing Crosby and Burt Reynolds are the only two people that controlled the box office five years each. If you know about the Cosmo Centerfold, then you must know his centerfold was the reason Playgirl magazine was started. The Cosmo Mag, that Burt appeared in was sold at $75 a pop. If anyone has one in mint condition they are very lucky. There's no telling how much it's worth. As far as Burt flushing his career down the toilet, that is an assinine statement. What caused his declining career was getting hit in the jaw with a metal chair, which was supposed to be breakaway chair. That had to have been done purpose. Any adult would know the difference, between a metal chair and a breakaway chair. The movie was City Heat with Burt's close friend Clint Eastwood. Burt was out of work for several years, because of the TMJ in his jaw. Then there was a rumor that he had AIDS (autoimmune deficiency syndrome), because he lost so much weight. It's like when you have your jaws wired together, you have to drink your meals through a straw. Drinking through a straw is almost impossible due to the pain it cause. How many movies have you acted in, directed or produced. To you I say, "Cleanup your own backyard, before you start in on one else's backyard.

@@cassiecarson4367 I know all of that of course, followed him for years, since Deliverance. If you choose Cannonball run 2 above Terms of endearment, you’re doing something wrong. He made a beautiful comeback with Boogie Nights in the nineties. So everybody thought he was going to take more quality work after that. JP Anderson offered him a role in Magnolia as a follow up, but he refused and took a part in another shit movie . After that he only made bad movies until he died. Unfortunately he never got a chance to do the part in the Tarantino movie. Would’ve been fantastic. Very sad.

Why do you think it took a lot of guts to do this show?

Because he wanted to do some good! That 's it!

Burt was one of the hottest things going in the 70's. People could not get enough of him! It's called...strike when it's hot! $$$

Don't forget Burt's father was Chief of Police. Back then these kind of shows were not unusual. Much more humanitarian time.

He spent lavishly in his hey days & blew a lot of money in poor investments trusting the wrong people, & lost even more of it in his terrible relationship/divorce to the horribly greedy Loni Anderson. (She was the "biggest" mistake of his life). But he was NOT homeless, lived in his longtime home in Jupiter, FL with 5 million left in the bank when he died. A far cry from what he should've had built up, had he made better choices, but also far from being destitute, as you attempt to claim. He was a good, good man. RIP BR
