watching william friedkin's seminal adaptation of william peter blatty's novel for the first time since i was a teenager, and off of the back of a screening of ''doubt'' proved a very positive experience. as a boy it was the overtly shocking moments of the film that i was attracted to, but as i have grown (and hopefully developed!) it is the thematic notions that strike the most fear. as an exploration into the themes of questioning ones faith rather bizarrely brought to mind scorsese's ''mean streets''.
i have every intention of returning to this review at some point, in the vain of a proper analysis.
