Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 12. "The Wages of Fear" perfectly demonstrates what it means to be on the edge of your seat.
| Kein Wunder, dass der Film auch damals schon als stilbildend galt. That title is so misleading that it just has to be some kind of an abstract symbolism, which goes to show you that between this adaptation of Georges Arnaud's "Le salaire de la peur" and the one by William Friedkin, the latter is the more pretentious.
December 6, 2011 This is a thriller about four men who risk their lives transporting nitroglycerin across a dangerous mountainous terrain in an unnamed South American country (perhaps Venezuela or one of the Guyanas) for two thousand dollars which will mean their passport to freedom. Anti-capitalist exciting existential adventure film. Man, that's an awesome title, at least by comparison, because at least it makes more sense than "Sorcerer". July 16, 2019 Based on the much-imitated novel by Georges Arnaud, the film is set in Central America. The village is dominated by an American oil company called Southern Oil Company (SOC) who controls many oil fields in the area.
The film was supposed to be filmed in Spain but Montand refused to film in Spain as long as Franco was in power so Southern France filled in for Southern Mexico.
There is a lot here that reminds me of other films. Montand was not known as a dramatic actor before this film but he does a terrific job and has good chemistry with Vanel. ...Fun facts which aren't in the strictest sense fun aside, to be fair, this film was made 24 years before "Sorcerer", in the '50s, when they didn't have the raw guts to... see how well they can bore someone. a decent and often gripping thriller, even though it isn't consistently thrilling.
A towering, devastating motion picture about a few brave men who are handpicked to be drivers of trucks carrying explosives, along a rugged terrain with life-threatening turns in the road.
Set in a small Mexican village surrounded by desert with its only link to the outside world being a small airport whose airfare is much too expensive for the out of work foreigners who pass the time idly at the local tavern. A masterpiece of cruel suspense. March 1, 2007
| The Wages of Fear contains tension-fraught stretches of "pure cinema" that probably gave even the Master cold sweats.
