By the mid 1970s,\u00a0<\/strong>film director William Friedkin was on a roll. 1971\u2019s\u00a0The French Connection<\/em>\u00a0bagged him an Oscar and widespread critical acclaim; 1973\u2019s\u00a0The Exorcist<\/em>\u00a0became the highest grossing Warner Bros film of all time. How did Friedkin follow up on all this monstrous success ? He decided to adapt Georges Arnaud\u2019s novel\u00a0The Wages of Fear<\/em>\u00a0(Le Salaire de la<\/em>\u00a0peur<\/em>), in which down-on-their-luck truck drivers in Latin America attempt to ferry nitroglycerine across a treacherous mountain range in order to extinguish an oil well fire. The resultant 1977 release was called\u00a0Sorcerer<\/em>. It sank more or less with all hands.<\/p>\n

Which is a shame, because\u00a0Sorcerer<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 or\u00a0Wages of Fear<\/em>\u00a0as it was somewhat unimaginatively titled in the UK (see poster below) \u2013 has moments that are pure cinema. The sequence where Roy Scheider and Francisco Rabal pilot their ramshackle truck over a threadbare rope bridge across a river in flood is one of the most extraordinary in film history (and\u00a0very<\/em>\u00a0Werner Herzog). All of which vindicates screenwriter William Goldman\u2019s assessment that in the movie business, nobody knows anything.<\/p>\n
