Empire Podcast - William Friedkin Special
The director of The French Connection, The Exorcist, Rampage, Sorceror and now Killer Joe popped round recently to talk about his career, his passions and fried chicken - and here's the full, unedited, worryingly long interview for you to enjoy at your leisure.
N.B. You'll probably enjoy this special podcast more a) if you have already watched Killer Joe and b) if you've already watched To Live And Die In L.A. There is a big spoiler from that film mentioned at the 38th minute, so if you want to jump four minutes after you hear the words 'To Live And Die In L.A.' then please do so.
