Linda Blair
Linda-Blair
49 total credits
From the age of six, Linda Blair had to get used to the spotlight, both as a model and in motion pictures, when out of 600 applicants she got picked for the role of Regan, the possessed child, in The Exorcist (1973). Linda seemed to be set to take the Academy Award for that role, but when it leaked how little of the possessed child she actually had been (dubbed voice by Mercedes McCambridge and liberal use of a dummy) that dream broke, and with that disappointment probably came the first blow to what should have been a sure road to stardom.

Surprisingly good lessons movie. There's some crazy stuff in this when you really think about it, like Linda Blair drunk driving a horse.

'70s afterschool special about the dangers of the sauce (and of divorce), complete with terrible casting and acting. Neat to see a young Mark Hamill (who is clearly much older than Linda Blair). Mom was far too dramatic. Creepy AA kids. Fav scene: "He's not my dad! He's just the man you're sleeping with!"
