The Wages of Fear is returning to cinemas with a new 4K restoration

Henri-Georges Clouzot’s The Wages of Fear is an absolute classic. The 1953 film stars Yves Montand, Charles Vanel, Peter van Eyck and Véra Clouzot. It has had a new 4K restoration which will be with us at the end of the month.

In a squalid South American oil town, four desperate men sign on for a suicide mission to drive trucks loaded with nitroglycerin over a treacherous mountain route. As they ferry their explosive cargo to a faraway oil fire, each bump and jolt tests their courage, their friendship, and their nerves. The result is one of the greatest thrillers ever committed to celluloid, a white-knuckle ride from France’s legendary master of suspense, Henri-Georges Clouzot.

The film returns to select cinemas on 27th November 2024.
