Just a reminder this gay ass serial killer movie was directed by the same guy who directed the Excorcist.

New Bev!

William Friedkin’s Cruising is WILD. 

Quote from Ed Whitfield on his Facebook - William Friedkin once said to me, “Ed, the guy who made those new Halloween sequels is about to make one to my movie, The Exorcist. That's right, my signature film is about to be extended by the man who made Pineapple Express. I don't want to be around when that happens. But if there's a spirit world, and I can come back, I plan to possess David Gordon Green and make his life a living hell.”

William Friedkin’s SORCERER!!!

Direct film references made by Billy Loomis:

-Jodie Foster, lead actress in The Silence of the Lambs': Gay woman

-Anthony Perkins, lead actor in Psycho: Bisexual man

- The Excorcist, directed by William Friedkin who also directed historic gay films 'Cruising' and 'The Boys in the Band'

I'm noticing a theme here but I can't quite put my finger on it 🧐

Edit: Perkins was Gay, not Bi!

Is Tim going that far with Athena's rescue? By repeating Charlton Heston's scene, only dropping Tommy in the back of the aircraft? With Buck and Bobby on board the jet helicopter to help Tommy rappel into the airliner?

In the movie, Karen Blaire is the flight attendant who takes on the massive responsibility of piloting the barely functioning plane and stabilizing its flight while a legion of pros on the ground scramble to concoct a rescue operation. She’s the reason the jumbo jet doesn’t crash into a mountain. She maintains its air speed and turns it gently from left to right and from right to left.  

But she’s not the one to land it.  

That incapacitated jumbo jet could not be saved without a professional on board. So, Joe Patroni (George Kennedy) and his people figured out they needed to send a pilot into the plane through the hole in the fuselage. So, they sent a jet helicopter into the air, tethered it to the plane and (after wasting one guy who accidentally fell to his death) airdropped Charlton Heston into the cockpit. And as luck would have it, they also decided to commit to the realism ushered by New Hollywood mavericks. They filmed much of this sequence on location with a real helicopter and a plane… and, naturally, with a hefty dose of Hollywood movie magic. But it looked real enough to pass the sniff test. It seemed momentarily indistinguishable from a New Hollywood product (at least in that last act) certified with a Hurricane Billy Friedkin Stamp of Approval.

I just googled the Milch/Mann baseball bat story. That shit's wild! Maybe if the show hadn't gotten cancelled there might've been some fisticuffs between those two. The only thing more explosive would've been to throw Billy Friedkin into the mix

Mann’s got a pretty decorated history as far as pissing his fellows in the industry off. And he originally wanted to cast Billy Friedkin as Hannibal Lecktor in Manhunter LOL

Watching the 9x08 Cockroaches commentary (featuring Billy Petersen, William Friedkin and Dustin Abraham) as I was excited to see Billy talk about the show but I cannot stop laughing at Friedkin’s enthusiasm. Billy and Dustin are barely getting a word in edgeways. Every actor is “fantastic”, he is explaining the construction of scenes and how to write for screen but in a Screenwriting 101 way and Dustin is like “you taught us about shoe leather” and then nobody explains shoe leather (it’s the idea of ‘burning shoe leather’, ie don’t have a character say they’ll travel somewhere and then go there, have them just show up. It does make for humorous plot issues when characters have travelled together but suddenly want to discuss things when they’re at the place, suggesting the journey was made in absolute silence – Immortality addresses it really nicely when Grissom and Sara get out of the car and Sara says they were in silence for 30 minutes)

(I was wondering what it would take for Billy P to do a commentary and got my answer very quickly)

(Also amusing: everyone was a ‘fantastic actor’ or led to discussion on fantastic acting EXCEPT FOR Eric Szmanda, who WF had zero comment on. Spectacular)

RIP Hurricane Billy, one of the best directors of the New Hollywood era.
