The Ninth Configuration

Loved it!!!  Why can't they make more smartly written movies like this?

Special thanks go out to Bingowings, who had posted a comment about this film in another thread. Thanks to you, I've found another favorite film. I just love that cast and writing!  I'm a huge fan of "The Exorcist III", and I can see lots of similarity in the styles of these two films. So now that I've seen two of his films, I can say with honesty that William Peter Blatty is now officially one of my favorite directors. Wish he would have made more...

Glad to have turned another bod onto the film.

I hope that the film version of Dimiter should it ever turn up is anywhere near as good because it deserves to be.

It such a shame that the original cut of Legion (which only exists as the highly compromised Exorcist III) seems to have been lost forever as Blatty was never given the chances for his unique narrative style to really shine through.

I wish I could see the stage play and compare it to the novel.
