Friedkin Uncut, the documentary by Francesco Zippel about the Exorcist and French Connection director William Friedkin, has been acquired by social entertainment platform TaTaTu ahead of the film’s world premiere in Venice.
TaTaTu, whose founder Andrea Iervolino is a producer on the movie, has taken North American and UK rights. The film is among the first blockchain/cryptocurrency backed titles to screen at a major film festival. It’s running in the Venice Classics Documentary section.
Written and directed by Zippel, Friedkin Uncut aims to offer an introspective insight into the titular filmmaker’s life and artistic journey. A Venice favorite, he started his career at the age of 16 as a mail room boy at Wgn-tv and ultimately became one of the most important American filmmakers of the 70s and beyond. Among his credits are The French Connection, The Exorcist, Sorcerer, Cruising, To Live and Die In L.A.
