Director

William Friedkin

Won best director at thirty-two for The French Connection and then made The Exorcist, and shot both with a recklessness that would end a career now.

William David Friedkin was an American director, producer, and screenwriter who was closely identified with the New Hollywood movement of the 1970s. Beginning his career in documentaries in the early 1960s, he is best known for his crime thriller film The French Connection (1971), which won five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director, and the horror film The Exorcist (1973), which earned him another Academy Award nomination for Best Director.
