It's peaceful, not a lot of crime going on, just a real peaceful town. This is Billy Redden, the guy who played the "dueling banjos" kid in Deliverance. Billy Redden (born 1956) is an American actor, best known for his role as a backwoods mountain boy in the 1972 film Deliverance. He portrayed a banjo-playing "local" during the film's famous "dueling banjos" scene. He returned to acting in Blastfighter (1984), where he also plays a banjo player, a trademark of his in his subsequent films such as a cameo in Tim Burton's Big Fish (2003) and Outrage: Born in Terror (2009). Billy Redden - Biography. Just a big shame. Rabun County is a pretty good town. Boorman felt that Redden's skinny frame, large head, and almond-shaped eyes made him the natural choice to play the part of an "inbred from the back woods." And the sequence asked for Billy's character to show a complete state of contempt for Cox's character (his on-screen rival) but he couldn't act in such way with the actor because he was very fond of him. FEEL OLD YET? Articles on many different subjects. To Boorman, Redden had the exact look of a country boy, the mannerisms and something different than the usual, qualities he needed for a part that could only be suitable to someone who wasn't trained as an actor - a non speaking part in one sequence where he makes a banjo duel against Ronny Cox. Burton was intent on getting Redden, as he wanted him to play the role of a banjo-playing "welcomer" in the utopian town of Spectre. But on the other hand, he had a complete dislike on Ned Beatty, so the trick used by the director to get the exact reaction in the shot was to put Beatty next to Cox to make Billy react with disgust, dead-on face expressions towards Beatty. The film was critically acclaimed and received nominations for awards in several categories.
The rest was all accomplished in the editing room.After the exposition in Deliverance (1972), Redden vanished from the screen but became a tourist guide to people who wanted visit the filming locations. The scene that Billy played in was a memorable moment in the film when he played the song Dueling Banjos with the actor Ronny Cox. In 2008, Deliverance was selected for conservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant. This 16-year-old boy from Rabun County, Georgia was the only “authentic” local to play the role of The Banjo Boy in John Boorman’s disturbing hit movie of 1972 Deliverance. Redden was born in Rabun County, Georgia, on October 13, 1956. In 2012, 40 years after the release of Deliverance, Redden was interviewed in association with a documentary, The Deliverance of Rabun County (2012). '*Think I'm 'exaggerating?
