: Did you know this about the best Burt-less movie?
: Got it off imdb, how dumb is this?
: "Originally titled "Smokey *is* the Bandit," with Jackie Gleason playing both the sheriff and the bandit. Test audiences were confused, however, and parts of the film were re-shot with Reed, Jerry as the bandit, replacing Gleason."
: TO KEVIN=Makes you think "Smokey and the Bandit 4" doesnt it?
