In the year 1972, Friedkin received a Golden Globe award for The French Connection, the first of which signified his full arrival in the field of crime drama. Next, in 1974, Friedkin picked up his second Golden Globe, the recipient of which was for The Exorcist, a horror classic that virtually still haunts the screen audience today. Both trophies are monuments to Friedkin, who is indeed considered a fearless director, a great tension maker, and an influential shadow upon the art form itself.
