DRIVE-IN SATURDAY
It's summer, and the flicker of the drive-in is seen across the land-. Time to stock up on Boy Howdy, stash the girls in the trunk, and head for the Dusk To Dawn, because Burt Reynolds is playing. Laugh all you want at the Burt Reynolds of late night television, (I generally switch over to Call To Prayer myself.) but over the past few years, he's been offsetting those Las Vegas obeisances by starring in the kind of cheerfully mindless trash that makes drive-in movie-going one of the joys of life, right up there with sex and chewy candy.
