White Lightning / The End – 2 DVD Set (Amazon Exclusive)

This 2 DVD collection features Burt Reynolds in an action and stunt packed classic and a black comedy.

White Lightning - Gator McKlusky (Burt Reynolds) has been convicted of running moonshine whiskey. He is offered a chance of release, if he will serve as an informer and help catch his one-time cohorts. Gator accepts, but only to get out of jail. He has another motive. He believes that the crooked sheriff (Ned Beatty) murdered his younger brother, a civil rights activist. With the help of a fellow "informant" (Matt Clark) and a daredevil driver (Bo Hopkins), a few fights and some astonishing stunt-driving chases, Gator will eventually prove his chase against the sheriff. A bonus: Gator will also acquire the daredevil driver's beautiful girlfriend (Jennifer Billingsley). With Louise Latham, Diane Ladd and a young Laura Dern (Diane Ladd's real-life daughter) in her film debut. Joseph Sargent directed.

The End – Burt Reynolds stars as a man who loses his will to live after he learns that he has only three months to live. At first he seeks solace from a priest (Reynolds' first confession in 20 years). The Priest's celestial comment is "Wow!" Reynolds attempts suicide and fails, waking up from his effort in an insane asylum.
