Linda Blair The Exorcist

Despite The Exorcist being Linda Blair’s first major film role, director William Friedkin didn’t cut the young actress any slack. The role was physically demanding to the point that Blair was put in uncomfortable, and even dangerous, situations.

For example, during the exorcism scenes, Regan is bedridden, only wearing a nightgown. Regan’s costume is notable because the temperature on-set would often drop below zero.

According to an Intimate Portrait episode highlighting Linda Blair, the extremely low temperatures were a result of the air conditioning units used to achieve the visible cold breath during the nightmarish scenes.

Crew members would be wearing appropriate protective gear against the cold. Blair, on the other hand, was freezing cold.
