Ned Beatty in Deliverance.
Not as an actor but the scene he had to play.
Can you even IMAGINE the phonecall Ned got from his agent?
Agent: Hey Ned...It's Dave at the Agency....got a lead on another part for ya....BIG MOVIE!
Agent: You know the star from the TV show "Dan August"...yeah...Burt Reynolds is gonna be in it...
Agent: Well, it's a real action-thriller about some buddies from the big city who go on a fishing trip way out in the sticks....
Agent: Yeah....REAL "man" type stuff...fishing...guns....bad guys....scarry rapids...it's gonna be a blockbuster.
Agent: Gotta know one thing....the director says you have to squeel like a pig really good....

Agent: Got me hangin'......I haven't read all the script yet....just...just...just give me a real loud pig squeel, OK?
