The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (1982) ✦ Full-Length Watchalong Reaction
Added 2025-11-12 15:00:13 +0000 UTCToday's movie is a Reactr request from Brad with a very interesting title. 😅 I wasn't surprised to see that Ashleigh Burton has already reacted to this one on her channel, knowing her love of Dolly.
I enjoyed seeing Burt Reynolds again, since I'd only ever seen him in Smokey and the Bandit prior! Please enjoy and I'm looking forward to your thoughts below!

2025-11-13 00:02:25 +0000 UTCI have to agree with you a bit on Burt and Dolly feeling more like good friends than in love with one another. It took a long time just for them to even kiss in the movie. 😂 So much so that I thought maybe Dolly had a no-real-kissing policy since she had already been with her husband for 16 years at that point.

2025-11-12 19:43:16 +0000 UTCApparently Burt and Dolly did NOT get along during the making of this movie. Burt had a reputation for being a little egomaniacal and hard to work with. However, you can't really tell in the finished film. I enjoy it, although I wish I liked it a little better -- even if it's tethered to a true story and has to end the way it does, I think there was probably a more satisfying version of that ending (although part of it is that while the two characters seem like great friends, I am not as convinced it's true love).
