I only just learned yesterday that, when it was discovered that the counterfeit money from To Live and Die in L.A. had entered circulation, the feds interviewed Friedkin to find out what had happened to it after filming wrapped. He didn't give them a thing and told them to fuck off. When the statute of limitations expired he admitted it was him -- he had been spending it as real money all those years. First thing he had done after the cops were done grilling him was he went and spent some more. One of the realest filmmakers to ever do it. He'll be missed.
The time he gave Oliver Stone shit over how long DVDs last was gold also. https://www.thedigitalfix.com/the-exorcist/william-friedkin-oliver-stone-dvds

Have you guys seen his interview with Nicolas Winding Refn.
Here's a documentary from 2018 on Friedkin. A truly original filmmaker. He will be missed.
