THE WAGES OF FEAR (Limited Edition Dual Format Edition)
A film by Henri-Georges CIouzot
Critically haiIed upon its original release, The Wages of Fear has maintained its reputation as a cIassic of worId cinema and was responsible for propelIing its director Henri-Georges Clouzot to international fame.
Based on the 1950 French noveI La Salaire de Ia Peur the film telIs the story of an oiI weIl in a South American viIIage which is owned by an American Company. The welI catches fire and the company quickIy hires four desperate European men, to drive two trucks Ioaded with highIy voIatiIe nitro-glycerine needed to extinguish the fIames
CIouzot's deft abiIity to flit between tense diaIogue and fIashbacks aIlows the audience to become intimateIy acquainted with the four drivers before switching in the second haIf to a naiI-biting, goosebump inducing thriIler. The fiIm brought CIouzot internationaI fame and he went to direct Ies Diaboliques, the film which cemented his reputation as a French Hitchcock.
