Matt Reeves
What a towering artist... I was so deeply affected by his incredible work, on screen, and in opera too... His staging of Puccini's "Suor Angelica" was one of the most moving things I have ever seen. A legend. My heart goes out to Sherry and his sons. RIP William Friedkin pic.twitter.com/WdLCfhtW1R

It was an honor to have numerous lengthy chats via Twitter with William Friedkin. He also sent word through his wife to one of my producers that he watched & loved The Black Phone— a gesture I will always treasure. The Exorcist and Sorcerer are 2 of the greatest films ever made. pic.twitter.com/hGEbfpaJnA

RIP William Friedkin, one of the best to ever do it.
I got to meet him at his house this year, & told him what an influence SORCERER was on Phil & me. If you haven’t seen it, it’s not about a wizard, it’s about transporting TNT thru the jungle, and is a master class in tension. pic.twitter.com/jtpQL9DxAF

I’m so saddened about the passing of William Friedken. He was an incredible inspiration and influence on my career. He was always incredibly positive about the industry and generous with his mentorship to other filmmakers.
