The Exorcist

Burbank, CA: Warner Brothers, 1972. Vintage oversize borderless double weight black and white photograph from the 1972 film. An amazing image, showing Max von Sydow looming above—and seemingly beyond—a very possessed young Linda Blair.

One of the great genre films of the 1970s that accomplished the uncommon feat of being an over-the-top sensation upon its release and gaining subsequent status as a classic, with a strangeness and depth supplied by Burstyn and Sydow that only increases with repeated viewings. Another distinction of "The Exorcist" was that it walked away with 2 Oscars (including Best Screenplay for Blatty), along with 8 nominations (including Best Picture), a feat nearly unheard for a horror film.

11 x 14 inches. Near Fine.
