Character Evaluation
Burt Reynolds has always been a free and easy man. Just like he was not good at choosing scripts, he was not good at financial management when he was young, and he was indifferent to his own situation.
At many moments in his life, Burt Reynolds' characters are “so indelible that they never disappear. Even after 40 years, they are still lingering in the brain”.
Burt Reynolds lacks recognition in important awards, but has made poor contributions to the film and television industries. In addition to acting, Burt Reynolds is also a producer, screenwriter and director. He is a rare all-rounder in Hollywood.
