I'm watching the last movie Burt did.  The Last Movie Star.  Will review it later.  I saw the trailers when they came out and intended to watch it before, but hadn't gotten around to it.  So I am today.   

The beginning is sad as HELL.  It's also really hard to watch him wobble through scenes -- and hard to see Chevy Chase looking puffed up and weird too.  What's scary to me as I get older is wondering if the brain still sees things the same way at 80 as you did at 20, 30, 40... but the body betrays you. That's sort of a part of this movie it seems, too. 

Anyway.........There's a scene toward the first where he's sitting alone, eating a TV dinner and watching football on TV. I can't see it well enough to tell for 100% certain but it looks like footage from an AU - Tennessee game.

It’s hard on me watching you in much the same way.

That is not even a joke.  

When I was growing up I wanted to be Burt Reynolds and Don Johnson.  I was neither.  Burt Johnson maybe.  Or Don Reynolds.

Can you imagine him and Lee Corso in the same backfield?
