The man goes from playing a hot tempered Brooklyn bus driver to a southern sheriff, and plays each role so CONVINCINGLY! He was a much more gifted actor than he ever got credit for.
Jackie Gleason did a fantastic job in Smokey and the Bandit, as we are all still commenting on his performance after all these years . He was a fantastic actor/ comedian.
I worked for a general aviation parts supplier in Atlanta in 1976, and one day these two guys came in looking for parts to repair a hydraulic hose assembly. I asked what aircraft it was on, and they told me it was a hydraulic line for a "camera lift". Turned out they were in the local area south of the airport making a movie called "Smokey and the Bandit". I told them I hadnt heard about it, and they replied that it starred Burt Reynolds, Jackie Gleason, Sally Field, and Jerry Reed, and that is was going to be released in 1977. I told them I would keep an eye out for it... I've seen it now about 35 times...
That's all? Just 35 times!! Just kidding! Same here. Jackie Gleason got screwed BIG TIME by not receiving the Academy Award for best supporting actor for his performances in this movie -- HANDS DOWN!!!!!
"You wanted something?" "Hush puppies, Daddy!" "We ain't got no time for that crap!" Classic! We use these lines at work when someone goes out to get lunch and offers to bring something back.
sounds like yall have a pretty cool working crew. My siblings and cousins always quote funny ass lines from movies and games whenever we can find a situation to work them in perfectly just like yalls work group.
I’m 55 and I Just watched this movie again the other day and it brought a tear to my eye. I miss Jackie & Burt, nobody makes good fun family movies like this anymore and these two were absalute icons of film. RIP you guys & Jerry Reed as well.. I know nobody lives forever but I for one sure miss them. 😢❤️👍🤣
Gleason usually didn't rehearse..he felt spontaneity was better.. incredible sense of each situation and how he carried himself, his movements were brilliant..I have watched where he starts to take a bite a hundred times and still when I try I can't get the timing right..genius... also watch the dance scene in Young Frankenstein with Gene Wilder and the monster... good grief the timing was impeccable and still u believed the monster was a...monster ..these actors of yesteryear were so talented, unlike these woke hacks today
@Gary Hassani damn. If this was made 3 years after he died, and the movie came out in the mid 70s, someone forgot to tell Richard Pryor, because he had Gleason in his movie "the toy " in 1982. 🤪😖
My Dad had just had a hernia surgery, watched this, and had to go back to the hospital. We warned him not to watch this movie. Buford T. Justice strikes again.
I hate getting old sometimes, seeing all the greats I grew up to that are no longer with us..Appreciate what you have now because it's gone before you know it. Rip Jackie, Burt, Jerry...
Yup, and if you 'win' the game, you still 'lose' the game. I'm the last one left out of my close high school/uni friends. They're all gone now, it's just me.
Ahhh yes, real movies. I miss those days. No pushing narratives and advertisements. Just good stories, good acting, and entertainment. Trying to watch the crap they push out now is painful.
The Old Hickory House in Forest Park, GA. My dad would eat there during sometimes during lunch break at work, but wasn't there when they were filming. He told me the movie stayed sold out for weeks.
Jackie suggested this scene. If it wasn't scripted before shooting it - and I don't think it was - then this was all improv, and man, did they pull it off.
I'll always remember that this was playing the same time Star Wars was in the summer of 1977. I had no use for Star Wars but I lived and breathed for this movie.
@@fanatamon Sarcasm doesn't translate too well sometimes. But just in case you actually thought hush puppies were solely the moniker of a footwear brand, there's also a deep fried treat with the same name.
I went to Mcdonald's drive up the other day and hollered in the speaker "Give me a diablo sandwhich and a Dr Pepper, and make it fast I'm in a god damn hurry". It took them about 3 minutes to say anything.
My oldest brother, R.I.P., came home from seeing this movie at the theater and he could not stop laughing. His favorite scene was this one. Gleason trying to eat a sandwich.
For anyone curious, A Diablo sammich, according to Google, is taco-seasoned ground beef served loose on a bun with corn and diced tomato, topped with sour cream and lettuce. Now to be clear, the sandwich Buford is eating in the scene is a BBQ pulled pork sandwich. And don't forget the Dr. Pepper. As for the hush puppies, ain't nobody got time for that crap!!!!!
How did they keep a straight face during this scene?! - perhaps being the sheer, wonderful professionals that they were might be the answer - sheer magic boys - so glad to have seen these two in my life time - wonderful days. RIP
I am sure there is much that was cut due to uncontrollable laughter during the making! I know I would have been laughing so hard the scenes would have taken many months to film.
One of the greatest comedies of all time imho; right up there with "Blazing Saddles" and the original "Caddyshack". The chemistry between Jackie Gleason and Burt was something that can never be duplicated.
One of the best movies of all time. The cast and the one liners are great! The innuendos are fun to pick up on too. Not sure they could make this today without someone complaining!
god I would fall the fuck out if someone use that terminology to express their need to use the restroom. ugh imagine using squirt as the description of having to shit. bleeghhh thats so nasty lol.
It's kind of the same psychology as encountering a wild dangerous animal. If you stay calm and don't run (at least not immediately), you'll be fine lol
Last year I got my 17 year old granddaughter to watch this movie and now this is one of her favorite movies . I went to see it with my mom and my aunt when it first came out . Damn am I really that old . I was a little kid
Scene cannot be bettered. Comedic genius all throughout his scene. Timing, delivery, gestures , body language all perfect. If he talked any slower he wouldn’t be in a rush. If he talked faster you wouldn’t be able to understand him.
"How much do I owe you?" "Dollar n a half" Wow. Today that wouldn't even cover his ice tea he's drinking, let alone whatever is in the brown paper bag.

Don't you just love the bugs bunny scences? The hero criminal chatting with the vilinous law man, just too awesome Burt must have had great fun with that movie!!!
I got my old man to watch this when he was about 80 Years old. I handed him a box of cleanex before it started. He said what the hell is this for!!!! At one point he was bent over laughing so hard with tears rooling down his face and the only words he had the breath to say was Oh Fuck! Mom and I were not sure the old man wasn't going to choke to death! (she was not in much better condition!)

And hammered drunk while doing it. Loved watching him work.
Watch the Hustler! The man can act.
It shows you what a good actor he was. There's not a hint of Ralph Kramden in Burford T Justice.
I went to a barbecue place in NC and asked for a Diablo sandwich. The girl in the drive thru said sorry this isn't Smokey and the bandit
You should have said "do you know who youre talking to little lady? this is Buford T Justice im in high speed pursuit"
Dope
At least she got the joke.
@Derek Langley That is priceless!!😁😁😁

Jackie Gleason was one of the absolute best.

He doesn't know that's The Bandit sitting there.
He was the perfect choice for that part!
Jackie Gleason did a fantastic job in Smokey and the Bandit, as we are all still commenting on his performance after all these years .
He was a fantastic actor/ comedian.
Gleason could have seen this movie simply as a money grab..but he puts EVERYTHING into this scene. What a performance.
Most of his lines were improvised as well.
For a guy who grew up in Brooklyn he could play a damn good stereotype southern sherif 😊

This is one movie that Hollywood should keep their hands off of. NO ONE can do what Gleason did.

Did that guy chase the Bandit coast to coast?
Yup, my dad had a heart attack in the 1970s, went to see Rollerball after and had to get taken outside as he got too into the action too soon.
My fondest memory of my dad was watching this. His laugh and Jackie's lines....comedy gold to me. Burt being so cool 😎
This scene was not in the original script. Jackie Gleason suggested it to the director, who also let him ad-lib much of his dialog. Great stuff.
Whatever. Gleason. Didn't age well.
When you have a professional who wants off the leash, you take off the leash and watch them run....

It was a sammich!
I am sure there is much that was cut due to uncontrollable laughter during the making! I know I would have been laughing so hard the scenes would have taken many months to film.
PLEASE DO NOT RE-MAKE THIS CLASSIC, an era when life really was ‘free’!

Just like Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday in 1993 Tombstone. Some great roles go unrewarded but not unappreciated.

@@pipersglenbb7086 Yes I did. The bathroom there was immaculate. It was an honor to take a squirt there....
@@Randy-ry9ss The diablo sandwich will give me the "squirts"....
Don't you just love the bugs bunny scences? The hero criminal chatting with the vilinous law man, just too awesome Burt must have had great fun with that movie!!!
Finally somebody got the fact that Burt was bugs bunny and Jackie was Elmer Fudd. Seen this a thousand times in Saturday morning cartoons.
@@billwaller7518 strange how only a few cought on to that.. But it's still funny to me.. Thank you for noticing too
This movie is one of the funniest ever. No matter how many times I watch it I’m in tears.
I got my old man to watch this when he was about 80 Years old. I handed him a box of cleanex before it started. He said what the hell is this for!!!! At one point he was bent over laughing so hard with tears rooling down his face and the only words he had the breath to say was Oh Fuck! Mom and I were not sure the old man wasn't going to choke to death! (she was not in much better condition!)
This is still one of my favorite scenes! THE GREAT JACKIE GLEASON! The toilet paper on the shoe gag was HILARIOUS!
The way he belched, that was so real. like he had heart burn
thats actually my favorite part of this entire scene; even his acting of a heart burn belch was perfection!
"Bink botm?? Bank robbin' is baby shit alongside what this dude is doing!" LOL xD
Watched video again to see if your "Bink botm" phonetics checked out. Perfect.
Nobody chasin’ me boy.
Thank you. Just brought up some great childhood memories.
It's sad knowing that the two men featured here, as well as the building they're in, are no longer with us.
Gleason was a genius, and lived it until the end, we miss you Jack.
I’m a nurse and I call all my older female patients ‘nice lady’ just because of this
We just watched this last Saturday afternoon. What a fun movie!
One of the best scenes ever!
Burt reminds me of Bugs Bunny in this scene.
i think that's the idea--Looney Toons homage
I guess that makes Buford T Justice Yosemite Sam!
@@melissacooper4282 or Elmer Fudd. Either one
I my opinion, one of the most UNDERRATED most funniest scenes EVER in the history of movies!!
Agreed, The Great One was the real deal. Him and Reynolds are terrific together.
@@cheezeeanyone like Abbott and Costello.
Agree 100%
My favorite line "I'm a little worried about Fred - he's gnawing on everything, barking and screaming, I think he's turning into a stalk of bananas" - Cledus Snow
That scene was shot in the old Hickory House Bar-B-Q restaurant in Mountain View, Georgia. Long since gone.
