In this episode, we delve into William Friedkin’s curious follow-up to The Exorcist and adaptation of the Georges Arnaud novel The Wages of Fear: Sorcerer. Hint: It’s not about magic. Michael and Dustin bond over getting their shared preconceived notions, about how interesting a movie that’s “just about driving trucks” could be, completely shattered. Jason breaks down the American New Wave and the situation that allowed such a film to get created. And so much more!
