BAM screening May 2nd
I caught a showing of Sorcerer tonight at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Friedkin was there and blessed the audience with a very lively Q&A session. He was extremely entertaining and his wit was sharp as ever. Friedkin also had a book signing, at which I asked when we could expect the blue ray edition of Sorcerer. He says he'll begin participating in the process in June 2013. I'm now experiencing a d'oh! moment, realizing I should've asked if he'll be doing a commentary track. I would guess that's inevitable. It's abundantly clear that he cherishes this film and wants to give it the life that Star Wars once crushed out of it.
