White Lightning (5/11) Movie CLIP - Sheriff J.C. Connors (1973) HD

Correcto on Ned Beatty.....he hung his picture right on that part of the southern sheriff....lol...one of my favorite chracters....his under-breath comments are hiiii-larious.

That staredown was epic..

Better be scart of Rebel Roy,too. "Women and da Poh-lice". Ha-Ha!!

Probably my favorite scene of the movie🤙

Ned Beatty is as good in this as Burt is. With his slightly comical look from a distance that is cancelled when he's up close and his coldness and intensity comes through, he gave real grit to this. It had the sense that Burt could pull all sorts of good ol' boy shenanigans, but the sheriff played for keeps. This is why for me this is the strongest of Burt's films of this period, in that it has real edge among the humour.

the movie was set & filmed in arkansas

My wrestling team recited this movie word for word during PT and I did all of Connors quotes. " Only 2 things whats that" but we did it waaaay more country.

One of the best movies ever made.

It's tuned up fine.

There's your friend JC Conners ? I want to talk to him so go talk to him i want to you to come with me I'll wait right here in the car

428 Cobra Jet!

After getting away with murder in Georgia, Ned Beatty turned over a new leaf to be a cop in Florida.

Monster engine

And that ain't no tin can

Underrated movie, underrated scene, three great actors

From a goofball to a mean SOB to anything in between, Ned Beatty could play just about any kind of role.

Gator knew his Law. There was nothing the Sheriff could do to him. At that particular time.

Make that 3 god first

Burt was one bad hombre’. He was wicked good on this film as was the menacing sheriff played to perfection by Ned Beatty. This is Burt’s best film, and made him the biggest film star of the 70’s. Even Brando was in awe and hated him out of pure jealousy.

Such a great scene

RIP BRT REYNOLDS AND NED BEATE

Damn I want that car.

One of the greatest portrayals ever of the old-time southern lawman.

tell him what he won Bob all nite stay at shangrula

great scene spend your time trying to hump them both.

There's only two things I'm scared of men and the police

Great movie

429 dual carburetors

But i have heard some 350s and 327 make this sweet sound with 800cfm qaudjet and a baby cam headers and thrush hush mufflers dumped behind the rear axle

"women and the poleese"

Man when i was young i wanted sideburns like that ! When COOL was invented

Good movie but everybody was sweating through it!

The woman and the police great line.

That was a nice car..watch this movie when you get the chance😁

I saw this movie at the drive in back in 1973 way better than the dukes of hazard 😊😊😊😊😊

J.C. Connors - a genial , peace loving, upstanding pillar of the community - yeah, RIGHT.😅 ....RIP, Ned.

I love this movie, seen it when I was 10, and the only thing I didn't like about it, is it would show him putting Hurst 4-speed shifter in gear, but other scenes it was an automatic on the column.... Couldn't fool me, even at 10 years old...
Still love this movie though....

Boy I sure would like to ride in that car with Burt Reynolds oh my God he is one hell of a man❤❤❤

powerful scene..burt is intense....

Gator McKlusky !
