I just answered your other post on this and provided this link. IMO, you've picked a tough subject depending on your instructor's religious beliefs. Be very objective with both angles you present.

Have seen this as well? It would be helpful if you are working on a course research project.

Steve, it could be either way: ego or humility. However, the rest of the information is, “Frank McCarthy, the film's producer, accepted the award on Scott's behalf at the ceremony, but returned it to the Academy the next day in keeping with Scott's wishes.”

Scott and Brando are the only two actors who have refused to accept the Oscar. If someone really loves their craft, that person should honor the recognition of nomination and/or win. Scott's competitors were no chumps either. They included Melvyn Douglas, James Earl Jones, Jack Nicholson, and Ryan O'Neal.

Turning down the Oscar was just plain stupid and gave no more notoriety to him in his career.

Steve, I hope that's not true. Patton premiered three years prior to The Exorcist and Scott would have had plenty of time to shoot the role of Kinderman beginning in August of 1972. George C. Scott won Best Actor for his role as Patton, but “Refused to accept the nomination and the award, because he did not feel himself to be in any competition with other actors.” Can we say, “ego”?

I couldn’t imagine the Kinderman role in the original film without Lee J. Cobb.

Makes sense … take a look at who played the part in the EIII.

Karras and Merrin's dubbed voices made me laugh, too. I can't believe someone knew both movies that well to get the results they did. It's quite effective, funny, and it works!

I did find this one that scares me, too! Somebody has a LOT of time on their hands to get the sequencing just right on this version.

Cap, if you squint really hard while wearing sunglasses, it definitely looks like Friedkin … or the camera guy.

I should draw a movie poster for “The Eggorcist”  And a scene or too.

Nice! 😀

I love this one too because it's so rhythmic with “unclean spirit!” Image Eggan's wings strapped to the wires on a chicken coop!

Okay, the German is scary despite leaving out Burstyn's infamous scream that's been used in a dozen other horror films.
