This Friday’s films will be a pair of classic road action comedies. An all-star cast join Burt Reynolds in a madcap cross-country race in The Cannonball Run (1981). Reynolds also stars in Smokey and the Bandit (1977), joined by fingerpicking supremo Jerry Reed. The two bootleggers are in a race against time to deliver some lovely illegal booze, all the while evading a Texas county sherrif who is determined to bust their sorry asses.
