"One of those commentaries that make you appreciate the film much more." Thumbs up from Starburst for the @ArrowFilmsVideo Blu-Ray of @WilliamFriedkin's CRUISING, with exclusive new Friedkin/Kermode convo track.
My review of @ArrowFilmsVideo's release of Cruising has gone up at @Starburst_mag. It's worth picking up the Blu-ray for the new commentary with @KermodeMovie interviewing William Friedkin. starburstmagazine.com/review…

You should read this (if you haven't already)... One of the best book related to filmmakers I've ever read... (with Making a movie by Sydney Lumet...)

I can see why people struggled with such a dark movie when there were so few positive depictions of gay life on screen, but 40+ years on 'Cruising' feels mind-blowingly progressive - a mainstream thriller with an A-List star set almost entirely within gay subculture? Wowzers.

Absolutely loved FRIEDKIN UNCUT. Excellent stuff. @WilliamFriedkin tells it how it is and it's refreshing, life affirming bliss. Highly recommended. Thanks MIFF for that!

A few years ago, @WilliamFriedkin sued to determine who owned the rights to his film _Sorceror_, which had been building a reputation over the decades. Once that was settled, he helped get a splendid Blu-Ray released.

I said the same thing! That’s because he was only 44 in THE EXORCIST.
They aged him, so when we saw him as children, he already looked 75.
But imagine...
At 44, he was the best 75 year old actor there was.

Watched @WilliamFriedkin's incredible 'The French Connection' on the flight home from Paris. C'est Magnifique all over again.

“Why would I want to go to Ecuador for two or three months to fall out of a truck? I can do that outside my house. It was vintage Mitchum, and I had no answer.”
