Gator

BURT REYMOLDS IN AN EXCITING COMEDY-THRILLER OF POLITICAL CORRUPTION Gator (BURT REYNOLDS) operates a still in a remote southern swamp and has an uncanny knack of getting himself in and out of hazardous situations. He is a rebel and non-conformist, laughing his way through life as though it were a joke whose punch-line he already knows. He also happens to be extremely heroic, which is why he has been enlisted by a U.S. Dept of Justice agent to hlp gather evidence against Bama McCall, a dangerous and deadly political boss flourishing in Dunston City. McCall has the mayor and the police dept in his pocket and is draining enormous sums of money fro gambling, prostitution, drug pushing and other illegal activities. With the help of a relentlessly persistant TV reporter and a social crusader, Gator finally gets evidence he needs but not before running into one hair-raising situation after another, including several attempts on his life. The events leading up to the surprising climax unfold with lightening speed and the skill and the dexterity Gator employs against the wiles and cunning of the evil Bama McCall and his collection of extortionists and killers, gurantee a couple of hours of non-stop, high-octane action. ©1976 United Artists Corp.
