Hand actor using fake sleeves, playing the Banjo during the filming of Deliverance.

The actor Billy Redden who starred as the boy in Deliverance couldn't play the Banjo, so local musician Mike Addis was used as a hand double for the playing scenes. Eric Weissberg played what you actually hear.

Deliverance (John Boorman, 1972)

Deliverance (1972). Intent on seeing the Cahulawassee River before it's dammed and turned into a lake, outdoor fanatic Lewis Medlock takes his friends on a canoeing trip they'll never forget into the dangerous American back-country.

Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect with this movie. I’d seen a lot of parodies of it and homages, and understood the story fairly well, and in that sense was mostly expecting not to particularly enjoy it. As it is though, the film burns as a terrifying character study and a masterclass in building narrative tension in a way that pulses long after the action is over. It’s pretty terrific, even if it does rely on some pretty dated stereotypes. 8.5/10.
