It’s amazing, you should watch it.īurt Reynolds may be 79, but he shows no signs of slowing down. Justice (Jackie Gleason), pick up a runaway bride nicknamed Frog ( Sally Field), and have all kinds of awesome times on the highway. Along the way they tussle with tough as nails Texas Sheriff Buford T.

Cledus "Snowman" Snow (Jerry Reed) drives the truck while his good buddy Bo "Bandit" Darville (Reynolds) serves as the "blocker," a fast car used to divert police attention away from payload. It follows the adventures of a couple of truck drivers bootlegging Coors, which couldn’t legally be sold East of the Mississippi River at the time.

If you somehow managed to miss Smokey and the Bandit in the years between the film’s 1977 release and now, you should rectify that situation immediately (to be fair, it was released two days after Star Wars, so it’s understandable if it slipped through the cracks).
