The Clark partners with Images Cinema to present a film series that captures the explosion of creativity, critical acclaim, and box office success that Hollywood directors found after the fall of the studio system.The series continues with one of the most frightening films ever made and banned from video release in Britain for over ten years, The Exorcist (1973). The Exorcist is the story of an atheist actress who turns to two Jesuit priests to free her twelve-year-old daughter from what she has come to believe is demonic possession. Written by a devout Catholic intellectual, William Blatty, it is an unsettling combination of honest belief in evil and film as storytelling. Friedkin took strident, dictatorial measures to maintain a pervasive feeling of fear on the set, at times refrigerating it to just above freezing. (Run time: 2 hours, 2 minutes)
Free. Accessible seats available; for information, call 413 458 0524.
