Review of The Wages of Fear (1953) by Jon C — 13 Nov 2007
Wonderful sense of place and time, the decay of the South American village and feeling of dread is perfectly pitched. The line "Where there's oil there are Americans" still rings true today.
And the last 45 minutes ratchets up the suspense unlike any film since. Toughest film ever made.
