Burt Reynold's Finest Five Minutes
I watched that racing movie on the plane - Driven, starring Sylvester Stallone. You know the one, where they race thru the streets of Chicago in CART cars? (CART is like Formula One, minus the glamour, the expense, the big manufacturers, sponsors, and racing talent).

Anyway, Burt Reynolds plays a wheelchair-ridden hard-ass racing team boss. I'm sorry to say it's his finest role. Which tells you two things:
- The exact altitude of the peak of Burt Reynold's acting career (lets just say you wouldn't need oxygen to scale it)
- As it's in the movie Driven, very few people will ever get to see it. How sad for Burt.
