Fear and Love: The Story of the Exorcist

Cracking new documentary about the greatest horror film ever made. Some great exclusive interviews with many of the cast and crew, Ellen Burstyn, Eileen Dietz, Owen Roizman, William O'Malley. Unfortunately we don't get Friedkin input but we do get some classic stories about how crazy he was on set. Also we get to see some behind fantastic the scenes footage, lots I've never seen before.

You can tell it has been made by a true fan of the film. It's only one hour long and I could have watched another 2 hours. Give this documentary a go if you are a fan of this Friedkin masterpiece, you will not be disappointed.

Absolutely loved the authentic dialogue from everyone involved with The Exorcist. Never knew about the injury Ellen Burstyn experienced on set! Also loved hearing about Dick Smiths influences, upbringing and taking a peak into his mind. I was also lucky enough to meet the director in person. In chatting with him, I see his passion and love for the film pouring into the work. Unlike some other documentaries this felt like a casual chat with all of those involved. There was nothing contrived or forced about their stories. They were asked some great questions because they seemed genuinely interested in discussing th topics and a lot of it was new to me as a fan. Great work!
