Anyone that's ever watched 1973's "The Exorcist" knows clearly it's one of the best movies ever made and much has been said and discussed about it with thoughts, theories and influences. This latest "Shudder" exclusive doc filmed in 2019 is an excellent spot on a must see for any film historian buff or fan of the film! Interviews are given with director William Friedkin shown are clips and old behind the scenes film footage of the movie and other works and liked films of William. Plus he gives insights and revealing info that much of the public never knew the way he made the film and he even mentions his differences with writer William Peter Blatty. Also he mentions how other films, and culture influenced his making plus he talks of how fate and faith was all wrapped up in the outcome and success of the film. The art world and past radio works even helped influence the score of the film. Overall really packed with much info from William a must watch for any film or pop culture buff as it sheds light on one of the greatest movies ever made.
