    I just said to the wife that Burt Reynolds died.


    She was shocked - "Bertie's dead!".


    Had to explain who he was.

    Sad news for sure, he knew his level and what the public wanted. Which was good old boy nonsense with a knowing smile.

    Interesting fact - he, Clint Eastwood and David Jansen were all released Universal studios on the same day. I trust someone got fired later!

    Boogie Nights wouldn't have been the cult movie it became without him.

    Last time I seen him on TV I had a feeling he wouldn't see the twenties.
