1972, dir. John Boorman w/Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty, Ronny Cox, 1h49m
John Boorman's legendary adventure film follows four men who take a break from their suburban lives to take a canoe trip down a Georgia river - but their weekend excursion turns into a nightmare battle for survival! On a casual stop along the river, our heroes are held captive and assaulted in a scene that has entered our greater pop-culture conscience via a line of truly terrifying dialogue: "Squeal like a pig!" But that is just the beginning of their problems, as they must now engage in a battle for survival that pits the men against the river and the locals -- and one another. Based on the poetic best-selling novel, this raw and engrossing film is not only made to be watched, but lived through. It's that impact of survival that makes DELIVERANCE and unforgettable cinematic experience.
