What Others Said
SWITCH.:
For those with a love for 'The Exorcist', but haven't read up on much of the behind-the-scenes details, this documentary will provide great stories and fascinating moments from the man who put it all together. But 'Leap of Faith: William Friedkin on The Exorcist' isn't just an analysis of Friedkin's finest work, or an uncovering of his influences and processes. It's a fascinating, no smoke and mirrors insight, honest portrait that allows a legendary director to not only explain his magnum opus, but who he is as an artist and as a man.
