The original Sorcerer is a supremely rewarding film, and I’ve only ever been aware of the ‘Wages of Fear’ cut as a sort of footnote in its release history - it’s a little baffling to hear it seriously discussed as a preferable option.

Anyway, I do have in mind to give the film (original cut, of course) a bit of a do-over in terms of the subtitles, original audio, possibly colour too. I need to get my hands on the laserdisc.

In the meantime, if anyone else is planning a Sorcerer project and wants to include the trailer, help yourself to my recut:

(La Rabbia certainly did when they grabbed it to include on the French BD!)
