Sorcerer (film)
''Sorcerer'' is a 1977 American thriller film directed and produced by William Friedkin and starring Roy Scheider, Bruno Cremer, Francisco Rabal, and Amidou. The second adaptation of Georges Arnaud's 1950 French novel ''Le Salaire de la peur'', it has been widely considered a remake of the 1953 film ''The Wages of Fear'', although Friedkin disagreed with this assessment.

The cost of ''Sorcerer'' was earmarked at $15 million, escalating to $22 million following a troubled production with ...
