Boorman and the Devil is fantastic.
It's a deep dive into the making and release of the ill-fated Exorcist II – one of the biggest, most beautiful studio swings of the 1970s – that doubles as a fascinating (and long overdue) portrait of John Boorman, one of the last century's great film artists.

I’ve seen two works-in-progress cuts of BOORMAN AND THE DEVIL, but tonite’s sold out screening of the real thing at @beyondfest.bsky.social was transcendent. Congrats to the whole team. I’ve always enjoyed The Exorcist 2 as spectacle but now I’ve finally got my head around what it’s trying to do.
