Movie description
Director John Boorman's harrowing adaptation of James Dickey's best-selling novel is a nightmarish descent into backwoods Americana. When four unsuspecting urbanites head into the mountains of northern Georgia for a weekend canoe trip, they have no idea what's in store for them. The group's macho leader, Lewis Medlock (Burt Reynolds), is driven by Hemingway-esque notions of man's ability to conquer nature, while his three friends--Bobby Trippe (Ned Beatty), Drew Ballinger (Ronny Cox), and Ed Gentry (Jon Voight)--aren't so sure. As the men begin to navigate their way down the precarious rapids, they discover that nature isn't the only one out to get them. The eventual appearance of two menacing hillbillies turns the vacation into an all-out nightmare. Photographed by the great Vilmos Zsigmond (MCCABE & MRS. MILLER, THE DEER HUNTER), DELIVERANCE is a compelling meditation on the dangers of masculine ritual. Reynolds dives headlong into the role that would make him a superstar, as does Beatty, whose legendary big-screen debut will never be forgotten. Boorman's thriller made two other lasting contributions to the pop-culture lexicon: the dueling-banjos sequence and the infamous line, "Squeal like a pig!"

Notes
Theatrical release: July 7, 1972 Shot on location in Rabun County and Tallulah Gorge, Georgia, and South Carolina. Burt Reynolds helped good buddy Ned Beatty land the rather unfortunate part of Bobby. Both writer James Dickey and Boorman's son, Charley, have cameos. In the true spirit of 1970s Hollywood cinema, Boorman had the actors perform their own stunts. James Dickey won the National Book Award for his poetry in 1965. DELIVERANCE was his first novel. It was published in 1970. The National Board of Review named the film one of their "Ten Best Films of 1972."
Editorial reviews
"...[Its] genre's one true masterpiece....DELIVERANCE intends to stir both soul and conscience..." -- Rating: A+ Entertainment Weekly - pp.74-5 - Glenn Kenny 5 stars out of 5 -- "[T]hrillingly shot by Vilmos Zsigmond with a devastating immediacy....It's generally accepted that Burt gave his best performance under Boorman's direction..." Total Film - Neil Smith (10/01/2007) 3.5 stars out of 4 -- "Vilmos Zsigmond's canoeing catastrophe remains hypnotic..." USA Today - Mike Clark (09/21/2007) 5 stars out of 5 -- "It's a story that explores an interesting moral grey line, and as such this survivalist tale has never dated." Ultimate DVD - David Richardson (04/01/2008)

You will never listen to banjo music the same again.

Deliverance
One of those movies that changed America.
Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty, Ronnie Cox, John Voight.

Thank You.
Thank you for shopping at Georgie's_Treasures. We appreciate your interest and wish to help you the best we can. Please feel free to email us regarding any questions you may have before you order or bid on our items. Asking first saves you from disappointments. We try really hard to help.
Paperless Ebay:
Starting soon Ebay has announced that no one can buy on ebay unless they have electronic payments, such as their Paypal. We want to make sure our good customers know this change is not our fault. For about 4 years, we have been accepting your various papers. All but one was good. We thank you and want you to know we would not have changed the system. Mr. McDonald of ebay's trust & security made a movie saying 90% of sales are with electronic payment. My percentage numbers were much less than that, and we were very happy. Sorry for the change.
Combining Shipping Discounts:
On most of our items, we do give a discount. Many of our items have discounts for multiple purchases of the same thing. Very, very few won't be elligible for shipping discounts. These are always shown in the listing. Mostly, however, we give discounts as follows:
2 to 4 items - 17% off the S&H of all items.
5 to 9 items - 25% off the S&H of all items.
10 and more - 33% off the S&H of all items.

Need Faster Shipping?
All the shipping charges shown are by media mail or parcel post for USA, for international they are the cheapest we can find in USPS or USP. These are what we have figured the S&H below. We can do faster shipping, but it is generally a lot more expensive. Please feel free to email us for the rates for faster shipping before you order or buy.
Making an Offer?
Georgie's_Treasures has several hundred items you can make a "best offer". Unfortunately the clever boys are trying to cheat by using terms and sentences that can be ambivalent. If you wish to "free shipping"; you must use "Seller to give FREE SHIPPING" in the message line of your Best Offer. Anything else is to be considered as not accurate and not binding on seller to give free shipping. We generally don't give Free Shipping.
Shipping Information.
We generally ship Monday through Friday, except for Postal Holidays. We try to ship on the next business day after your payment clears either through paypal.
Shipping & Handling.
Shipping is more than postage, it includes many thingsand costs. It also includes reserves for returns by the UPSP. If you have any questions, please email us before ordering or buying. We try to be fair with our customers. Remember if you are getting a media item, media mail across the USA is very slow often 3 weeks. We are at the beach end of California, and often our buyers are at the Atlantic side of the country. Parcel Post (or USP Ground) can take up to 12 days.
"BEST MATCH" IS NOT BEST FOR BUYERS.
If you are looking for our other items to get the shipping discount. We have been looking at the Best Match, and it appears not very good for buyers. Basically Ebay is manipulating what comes up first based on how they like the seller and how much time is left on the auction. I spoke to a powerseller agent, and he said no one knows how that best match works. Often the front page of Best Match are not very good buys. We recently listed a NEW DVD. It was the lowest in terms of price and shipping. When we put up "Best Match" our DVD was 12th down. The top guy was charging about double total than we do, but he gets nearly 10,000 feedbacks a month. Perhaps if you use best match to find our items for shipping discounts, you are getting favorites of ebay instead. But when we changed to lowest price and shipping, ours was first. To get the best price and discount shipping:
1. Go To "Buy"
2. Suggest something you might wish to buy in the search box and enter.
3. At the very top of the list of items find and click on "Customize View".
4. On The Very Right Side click on "Advanced Options".
5. There are two drop down boxes. Click on the little triangle of each box to find the way you want to always see listings displayed. Me, I choose, "Lowest Price" for both boxes. I like to save money.
6. Once you have your choice of way, click on the bottom button "Apply Changes".
Then every time your search ebay, you get the best price and shipping. I'm confident you will find many of our items to get that shipping discount.
I save money with this, and hope you do too.
PLEASE DON'T CONSIDER VERY GOOD AS A GIFT ITEM.
Since ebay started the categories for used condition, we've had several people think that "Very Good" is a gift item. It really isn't, unless you are talking about rare collectibles where getting anything at all is very good. If you are thinking about a gift, then stay to "Brand New" or "Like New".
Contact us:
We are in California. We generally open about 10 a.m., and work through about 7 p.m., except Sundays when we close about 2:30 p.m.. While we are open, we often won't be on line all the time, as we must buy stuff and ship stuff. We try to reply to all questions before we close for the night. If you've sent us an email before our general closing time, and we don't reply, you might wish to resend.
We will send you notice of our shipping date:
If you are the successful purchaser, nearly always we will send two notices. When we get your order, we will send an invoice. (If you pay right away, we don't do this notice.) And when we receive both the ebay sale notice and the paypal notice, we send notice of when we are shipping.
Please read all the ebay and paypal rules before bidding:
From time to time, we encounter a buyer who has not read the rules. Ebay and Paypal had to make some choices about who is responsible and how people should proceed if there are problems. We have read the rules, and understand the choices they had to make. We will follow these rules and expect others to also follow them. While we hate to reply to "that's not fair" letters, the decision not to read the rules is really what is not fair, isn't it?
Customs Forms:
In the USA there are 2 customs forms, one for 4 pounds and under and one for the larger items. Both have a number, which can be tracked by modern international countries' post offices once the item crosses into your country. All packages over 10 ounces require a form. We put a customs form on each and every international package regardless of weight (unless the buyer writes us, using only ebay message mail, to not use a form.) The buyer of this item agrees to allow custom's forms to be used as tracking information at the prices shown in this listing. Should the buyer wish "regestered mail", the additional charge is $12.97.
Know Your Custom's Regulations:

There are over 200 countries in the world today. Each has their own set of regulations for what a citizen can import. There is no way Georgie's_Treasures can know all those rules, but you (the citizen) should know the rules of your country. Should the product be stopped by customs or returned by customs, it is the buyer's loss for both price and s&h.
What is Georgie's_Treasures?
We are primarily a liquidator. Many of our selections, while new, are in shop worn boxes. We get a lot of our product from stores changing their directions or discontinuing items. Generally these have been picked at a bit, but the product is still new, only the package sucks. We sell the product shown, not boxes nor blister packs. If you are a collector, more interested in a box than what's inside, please write me first before bidding. Yes, at real stores people pass items that are perfectly good, but boxes are bad. Now you can save at their foolishness. Also nearly all of our cassette boxes are punched. This does not affect the tape, just notices it was a liquidation item. As I said, we don't sell boxes nor blister packs.
UPC OR ISBN
We also list items by the instant look-up on ebay. Sometimes the UPCs and ISBNs don't match up with the instant item, but the music is the same.

Should you bid now or wait to the end of the auction?
Several times a month, we get letters from buyers asking if we might have another copy of an item. They wanted it, but heard it was best to wait until the last minute to bid. They did not get to the auction site at the right time and missed it. Someone else got the product at or less than they would have paid. Our thought is, put up a bid when you decide you'd like the item. If you are at your computer, at the last minute; you can still be ready, if someone out bids you, to outbid them. If no one else bids, you won the item, whether or not you are at your computer at that last minute.
Thanks:
Georgie
