George Burns and Other Sex Symbols

About This Movie

So, 'George Burns and Other Sex Symbols' is quite the quirky TV movie from '82. It’s this odd mix of comedy and musical where Burns, with his trademark charm, revels in his unexpected status as a sex symbol. The pacing is a bit loose, almost leisurely at times, which gives it a relaxed vibe. The atmosphere swings between playful and cheeky as he engages with a lineup of lovely guests—some legendary, some lesser-known. The discussions on sex symbols throughout the ages add a layer of nostalgia, while the performances, especially Burns’, feel genuine and lighthearted. It’s not your usual film, which is probably what makes it stand out in the sea of 80s television.
