80's Movie Weekend



Let's keep the Burt Reynolds theme going with the movie weekends what do you say? From Smokey to the Cannonball Run to teaming up with Dolly Parton for a movie that I didn't really understand what the title meant back in 1982. Mom, what's a whorehouse? Seriously, they couldn't come up with a better name for the movie? Well, it did rank as one of the top 10 grossing films of the year. Starring Reynolds and Dolly Parton, it's "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas"...

the trailer...



Burt and Dolly love each other, and Dolly breaks out into a familiar song...
