Rated:

Based on the
James Dickey novel of four Atlanta businessmen (Jon Voight, Burt
Reynolds, Ned Beatty, and Ronny Cox) who go on a weekend canoe
trip and get more than they bargained for. McKinney and Coward
play the film's villains. And don't forget the "Dueling
Banjos'' scene. Film debuts of Beatty and Cox. One of Burt Reynold's
best films.
