Truth be known, Billy Redden was a teenager at the time. He couldn't play the banjo. he certainly looks the part of a backwoods Georgian inbred child. Considering his background now he just might be. Although, it's always been denied. They found another teenager who was like a virtuoso banjo player. They strapped Redden to the banjo player with his arms behind his back. Then when it came to play the part, Redden just pretended to play using facial expressions to sell himself playing while the other kid strapped behind him actually did.

I doubt that "Deliverance" would never be made today. Even in 1972, it was a cringe worthy motion picture. I've never been able to get through it in one shot. Very uncomfortable to watch.

People always think that, but modern movies have some outrageous content, just not main stream movies. The ability for low budget movie makers to find a crowd now is way easier with all the streaming services. The free and niche services from tubi to shudder have some pretty out there stuff

Meant that the winters in Edmonton & Winnipeg are virtually similar.

I would argue Edmonton's winters are longer and a bit colder.

I agree but it's Winnipeg on players NTL. The only thing that saves Edmonton is the chance to play with McDavid & Draisaitl.

My earliest Bomber memories were of Mack Herron. This is the 1st time I've seen NFL footage of him. Thanks for posting this.
