William Friedkin invented a new kind of car chase in “The French Connection,” but at the start of his new documentary, “The Devil and Father Amorth,” he puts his reputation for realism under assault.
“At the time I made ‘The Exorcist,’” the director confesses, “I had never seen an exorcism.”
The article is slightly mocking, as one might expect from the NYTimes. I read Father Amorth's books (and thought I blogged about them here but I can't find it.) They were terrifying.
