Here’s something we didn’t know about Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: the friendship between Leonardo DiCaprio’s actor character and Brad Pitt’s stuntman character was based on the lifelong friendship of Burt Reynolds and his stuntman Hal Needham. Burt and Hal had matching egos and machismo (not to mention gold chains and chest Continue reading “QUENTIN TARANTINO’S INSPIRATION: BURT REYNOLDS!”
Burt Reynolds happened to die at the right time for his ex-girlfriend Sally Field.

Every time we see 80’s sex symbol Loni Anderson,71, we think of the book, “But Enough About Me” her ex-husband Burt Reynolds, 80, wrote a couple of years ago. Burt ungallantly wrote that marrying Loni was a “really dumb move” because one should “never marry an actress.” He criticized Loni’s free spending habits – he Continue reading “LONI ANDERSON: LIVING WELL IS THE BEST REVENGE”
