Review of The Exorcist (1973) by Michael Wilmington for Chicago Tribune — 01 May 1998
This jolting tale of a 12-year-old girl possessed by the devil, her desperate movie actress mother and the two priests called in to exorcise the demon, actually seems a deeper movie now -- more intense, less formulaic or shallow.
Yet it's also retained all its original hypnotic narrative grip. [2000 re-release].
