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. • • • Stanley Kramer, the Acad. 349-9260• THE BIG analk e emyAward-winning producer and director of "Judgment at Nuremberg," now is taping three films in his "Judg- ment" series, television spe- cials for ABC at the Burbank Studios. The pictures are be- ing made in conjunction with David L. Wolper's semi-docu- mentary unit. The first one, "The Trial of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg," a 90-minute dramatization of the tragic spy case in the aftermath of World War II, written by Harty Kleiner, stars Hershel Bernardi and Brenda Vaccaro. ALL NEW L1V MUSICA FANTASY ON STAGE! "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. NEVER NEVER LAND WHERE DREAMS ARE BORN!
