  • Hey you guys, Chet the Dream Poet here. Come join me for another vlog today as we venture deep into the mountains of northeast Georgia to find the filming locations of the 1972 hit thriller Deliverance starring Burt Reynolds, Jon Voight, Ned Beatty and Ronny Cox. This is the film that still makes people avoid the deep parts of the United States. Remember a Like & Subscribe is always appreciated!

    The scene where the boy did not shake his hands after the dueling banjos was because Drew's character takes the lords name in vain. He says God damn.

    Enjoyed the video very much! When trying to match up the exact filming spots you sometimes have to deal with things like weather, but you did a great job considering what you had to work with. Just seeing where a piece of cinematic history was filmed over 50 years ago is so cool and the movie still lives on all these years later.

    Did you know the “ toothless man “ in deliverance was Herbert Lee "Cowboy" Coward who was also an actor at Ghost Town in the Sky. Burt Reynolds was also an early actor a Ghost Town and they knew each other from there. Cowboy still lives in Haywood County NC.

      the other guy, the one that committed the assault is Bill McKinney. You may know him from some other films. He was Captain "red legs" Terrell in Outlaw Josie Wales, he was one of the Black widows (the one with the horns on his helmet) In Every Which Way but Loose. He was also Dave the state police captain in Rambo First Blood.

    Billy Redden, who was cast as the Banjo playing inbred, today works at the local Walmart. I saw a news clip about him and he says that Deliverance was the best thing that happened to him, though he didn't get paid much $ for the work and role. The late great Bill McKinney, the primary mountain man, has a huge resume of films. I had forgotten that he worked alot with Clint Eastwood, like The Outlaw Jose Wales. I did recognize him as one of the guards in The Green Mile. He's the one in the small room with the "switch", who throws it when he hears, "Roll on 2."

    @3:00 Check out how long Burt's leg is from heel to knee and how short his upper leg/thigh is!
    Poor Burt, still so body conscious at that age which couldn't have been very comfortable. Between that huge boot heel and the inside lift he has to be gaining at least an extra 4 inches and it looks a bit ridicules.
    Well Burt loved his lifts... boot lifts, face lifts, eyelid and brow lifts, you name it. Such a shame too because he had such rugged iconic looks in the 60s and 70s, but by the 80s Burt starts looking a bit metro-sexual. It only goes downhill from there with his Jerry-curl hairpiece of the 90s, and later on in the new century his facial skin so thinly pulled back it was hard to look at him! Thankfully his sunglasses helped cover his slanted eyes.
    Don't get me wrong I love the guy and loved his earlier movies (up till Cannonball run, very little after), plus he contributed so much to his films it left him injured! I'm the ultimate fan which is why I just wish he grew old gracefully like a man. I think he would've been respected more as an actor and I think it would also have been a better look to match the type of characters he played.
    He also should be commended for his loyal friendships to his acting buddies like Jerry Reed and Dom Deluise to name a few. Too bad he couldn't stay loyal to the women in his life which ultimately left him a broken man losing half his shit a few times in divorces to the point of bankruptcy having to sell his ranch and auction off all his belongings of which I'm assuming included that canoe.

    Perhaps, get out and do some hiking yourself and you will not be sucking for air...sounds like your a southerner and being so close to the river and or any water source as well as walking down a trail...very fortunate to not crossed paths with a CottonMouth, Timber Rattler or other venomous no-shoulders that are all over the area...wearing flip-flops probably not smart.....Oh well, I just wasted 13 minutes....I hope ur approach improves because this was pretty bad...not intended to be offensive just honest feedback.
