I saw Deliverance the first time it was shown. This was at the Atlanta Film Festival in 1972 at the Memorial Arts Center at Peachtree and 15th.
It was quite unusual in that year for a movie to be filmed in Georgia. I remember Governor Carter got on stage and criticized the film as he said it made the mountain folk of North Georgia look bad.
It certainly was shocking to see that movie. Six months earlier, four of my buddies and I had rafted the Chattooga River on a three day trip. We had heard that a hollywood movie had been filmed on that river but not released yet.
We did run some rapids but we were not accosted by any hillbillies with a 12-gauge.
