Suspense-Filled Yarn of Desperate Men
One of the masters of serving up suspense and making it nearly unbearable is the French director Henri-George Clouzot, who curdled the blood of audiences with his somber "Diabolique" (1955), the film that inspired Alfred Hitchcock to make "Psycho."  Two years earlier, Clouzot made an extraordinary film that combined desperate men, a grimy Central American village, and a dangerous cargo.  This film, "Wages of Fear," is available in Blu-ray on The Criterion Collection label.<br /><br />The Southern Oil Company, which unofficially is in charge of everything in the impoverished village of Las Piedras, sends out a call for long-distance truck drivers.  To earn $2,000 each, the drivers must transport highly volatile nitroglycerine, needed to put out an oil fire, across treacherous terrain.  Through flashbacks and dialogue, we learn why each of the four men who volunteer is willing to risk his life for these wages.<br /><br />The early part of the film establishes the characters of the four drivers.  With the exception of Yves Montand, the actors aren't familiar faces, and this contributes to the film's believability.  Clouzot tells us so much about the perils of the journey that we can't wait for the 300-mile drive to begin.  It is here that Clouzot fashions some amazing, memorable scenes as one obstacle after another impedes the trucks' progress.  Largely through visuals, with just bits of dialogue, Clouzot shows how the men's determination transforms to uncertainty and then to fear.  By then, it is impossible to turn back.  The men must either perish in the jungle or forge ahead.<br /><br />"Wages of Fear" runs 147 minutes but it is so engrossing, it moves along briskly.  The lead characters are not especially likable, yet the viewer cannot help but lose himself in the suspenseful, hazardous slog through inhospitable terrain.<br /><br /> The Blu-ray edition contains a restored High Definition digital transfer, video interviews with the film's assistant director and Clouzot's biographer, a 1988 video interview with Yves Montand, a documentary about Clouzot, and a featurette about cuts made to the film for its American release.
