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.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this TV movie starring Martin Sheen and Linda Blair. Sheen really shines with a dynamic performance and Blair is believable in her character. Watch until the end, there is a small scene that is very touching.
