Academy Awards
The Academy Awards, better known as the Oscars, are awards for artistic and technical merit for the American and international film industry. The awards are regarded by many as the most prestigious, significant awards in the entertainment industry worldwide.

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 plot depicts four outcasts from varied backgrounds meeting in a South American village, where they are assigned to transport cargoes of aged, poorly kept dynamite that is so unstable that it is 'sweating' its dangerous basic ingredient, nitroglycerin. ''Sorcerer'' was originally conceived as a side-project to Friedkin's next major film, ''The Devil's Triangle'', with a modest US$2.5 million budget. The director later opted for a bigger production, which he thought would become his legacy. The cost of ''Sorcerer'' was earmarked at $15 million, escalating to $22 million following a troubled production with ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
