Description
Antony and returning guest Luke Thompson of ‘Luke’s English Podcast’ tackle William Friedkin's underrated 1977 thriller, starring Roy Scheider. This film wasn't a success in its day but has been reassessed over the decades and could now be considered a 'hidden masterpiece'. The plot is very simple but the film is marvellously evocative, and the production of the film is a story in itself...   Hope you enjoy it!   'Film Gold' is on all the main podcast platforms.   Feedback to [email protected]   Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/filmgoldpod/   Twitter handle https://twitter.com/FilmGold75   Antony's website (blog, music, podcasts) https://www.antonyrotunno.com   Antony’s John Lennon podcast https://glassoniononjohnlennon.com/   Luke’s website & podcast https://teacherluke.co.uk/   The full video version of our ‘Sorcerer’ review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-a6odjdG-H4   episode links Sorcerer wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorcerer_(film)   A great analysis of the main themes of the film https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2TdY0nRHzc&t=0s   Vast amounts of IMDB trivia about ‘Sorceror’ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076740/trivia/?ref_=tt_trv_trv   William Friedkin on the Marc Maron podcast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17OjQiec8Sg
