The Joy of Positivity: Gator (1976)

Burt Reynolds was at the peak of his beauty and charisma when he made his directorial debut with 1976’s Gator. Reynolds was so appealing in the mid-1970s that he could play a hobo competing for the title of World’s Smelliest Bum, and he’d still convincingly get the girl and inspire envy from awestruck audiences.
