45 Years Ago Today: Friedkin's Sorcerer Proves It's Still Burning Bright

A Masterpiece of Slow-Burning Tension and a Descent Into Misery

Never heard of it until about a week ago. So I put it on my watch list. WEB. Does anybody else remember Sorcerer? It came out in mid-1977 and nobody I talk to seems to remember it. WEB.

A Forgotten Gem

Well, I've seen the full movie on YouTube and I found it fantastic. Wonderful pacing even if the middle part is quite long. WEB. Anyone want to talk about SORCERER? There's spoilers in this post I guess, but it's a 45-year-old movie. WEB.

Sorcerer is a masterpiece full of slow-burning tension and a descent into misery. I saw this film after a recommendation from a YouTube video, and I was blown away. The film follows the story of four men who are hired to transport nitroglycerin across a treacherous South American jungle. The journey is fraught with danger, and the men must face their own demons as they struggle to survive.

Sorcerer is a powerful and unforgettable film that will stay with you long after you've seen it. If you're looking for a great film to watch this weekend, I highly recommend checking out Sorcerer. You can find the full movie on YouTube.
