HOLLYWOOD — William
Friedkin, a graduate from
television with only two im-
portant features, "Boys in
the Band" and "The French
Connection" to his credit, is
the director of "The Exor-
cist,"- from the controversial
novel by William Peter Blatty
dealing with diabolical pos-
session.
The book has sold over
6,000,000,000 copies through-
out the U. S. and has been
translated into 18 languages.
The movie, which was in
production for more than 10
months and cost in excess
of $10,000,000, grossed almost
$2,000,000 during its first week
in only 25 theaters in the
U. S. and Canada.
"The Exorcist" recounts
the eternal struggle between
the forces of good and evil
dealing With a devilish crea-
ture who has taken over the
body of an innocent girl-of 12
and refuses to leave, even af-
ter tedious rites have been
performed by a Jesuit priest
and a professional exorcist
called in from abroad.
Unlike "The Dybbuk,"
where a young woman is pos-
Sessed by her lover, a yeshi-
va student in Poland of yes-
teryear who had found an
untimely death, "The Exor-
cist" boasts no romantic re-
lationship between the maid-
en and the dominating force
within herself.
Ellen Burstyn, who starred
in "The Tropic of Cancer"
and "The Last Pi c ture
Show," plays the victim's
much harassed mother. Lee
J. Cobb is the police detec-
tive, Max von Sydow ap-
pears as Father Merrin, the
exorcist; and Jason Miller,
author of the Pulitzer-Prize-
winning play "That Champ-
ionship Season" portrays a
Jesuit priest, Damien Karras
who sacrifices his life to
break the case.

Dustin Hoffman, in 1967 a
complete unknown trying to
hustle a job in an off-Broad-
way production, now six
years later at the ripe age of
36, demanded and received
$1,500,000 for "Papillion," in
which he portrays a convict
incarcerated in the penal col-
onies of French Guiana and
Devil's Island.
In the meantime, Hoffman
is preparing himself for his
forthcoming role in "Lenny,"
filmization of the stage musi-
cal dealing with the life of
Lenny Bruce, the Jewish
nightclub comedian who in-
vented "four-letter words" on
the stage and killed himself,
quite unwittingly, with an
overdose of narcotics.

ing made in conjunction with

mentary unit.

Julius and Ethel Rosenberg,"

the tragic spy case in the
aftermath of World War II,
written by Harty Kleiner,

"The Days •of Betrayal,"
the Czech-made motion pic-
ture produced 'at Barrandov
by director Otakar Vavra, is
the account of the Munich
sell-out in 1938, a painstak-
ingly slow development of the
tragic events that takes al-
most four hours of screen
time. The Russian-controlled
Czech studios proudly pre-
sent the film for Academy
Awards consideration.
