-- The Exorcist: Linda Blair, pea soup, 360-degree head turn, Satan, "the power of Christ compels you...," blah, blah -- whatever, it's still a great movie. And besides, it stars Ellen Burstyn, who is practically perfect in every way. Part of the Castro Theatre's William Friedkin Series, it screens tonight at 7 p.m.; $6-$9.
Along with our friend Dan Carbone, whom we already told you about, the NY/SF theater-as-mind-altering-device company Banana Bag & Bodice was honored on July 16th with three New York Independent Theater Awards nominations for its original play, The Rise & Fall of the Rising Fallen, last seen on this coast at the 2006 San Francisco Fringe Festival.
