The true story that inspired the Exorcist is extremely well written, directed and acted and in many ways it is more interesting (and far less exploitive!) and thought-provoking than the movie it inspired.
Performances by Timothy Dalton and Henry Czerny were topnotch and Christopher Plummer as the Archbishop of St. Louis was absolutely fabulous.
The screenplay by Michael Lazarou and Steven desouza was compelling, moving and frequently funny when it needed to be. Desouza did a skillful job of directing the film.
