The Exorcist (1973)
dir. William Friedkin
#Cinema 🎟️🎚️
📽️🎞️ #FilmSky

Andrew Sarris of The Village Voice complained, "Friedkin’s The Exorcist succeeds on one level as an effectively excruciating entertainment, but on another, deeper level it is a thoroughly evil film."

Jason Miller as Father / Dr. Damien Karras..

The cultural conversation around the film helped it become the first horror film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture, as well as nine others…

#MovieTrivia: Among several other Golden Age films and serials, 1954's 'Secret of the Incas' was a major stylistic and narrative influence on the Indiana Jones franchise, with Charlton Heston's look serving as a design template for Indy himself.
