The Big Picture One thing should be made clear right out of the gate: the original The Wages of Fear is one of the greatest thrillers ever made. Yes, this stellar 1953 film directed and co-written by Henri-Georges Clouzot has endured because of its impeccable craft, patient pacing, solid performances, often breathtaking visuals, and final emotional punch.
Release Date March 29, 2024 Director Julien Leclercq Cast Sofiane Zermani , Alban Lenoir , Joseph Beddelem , Toussaint Colombani Runtime 104 Minutes Main Genre Action Writers Hamid Hlioua , Julien Leclercq That an attempt has been made to revisit the classic film more than 70 years later is something that was already bizarre before this new take was even released.
