Gator

Actor Burt Reynolds stars as Gator McKlusky in this sequel to WHITE LIGHTNING. He is blackmailed by federal agents to fink on his good buddy--and local crime czar--Bama McCall (Jerry Reed). An incompetent federal agent (Jack Weston) is following Gator to monitor his duties, as is a TV reporter (Lauren Hutton). What follows are car and boat chases galore amidst good performances by inexperienced actors, including country-and-western composer/singer Reed, in the backwaters of the "good ol' boy" American South. Burt Reynolds also directed this lively action movie.
