Burt Reynolds stopped being a mere actor to become a movie star, but he was great at both. RIP.

The Hollywood Reporter’s piece about Reynolds’ death concludes with this:
“I always wanted to experience everything and go down swinging,” he wrote in the final paragraph of his memoir. “Well, so far, so good. I know I’m old, but I feel young. And there’s one thing they can never take away: Nobody had more fun than I did.”
