Episode #66: Sorcerer (1977)

After hitting Hollywood with two smash hits in The French Connection and The Exorcist, director William Friedkin could have chosen practically anything for his next movie. So he chose to remake a beloved international classic in the middle of the jungle. And then practically everything went wrong. For this underappreciated classic I'm joined by filmmaker Scott Derrickson (@scottderrickson), who you'll know from movies like Sinister, Dr. Strange, and The Black Phone. Suffice to say that Scott loves this movie deeply, and you'll hear why in this super-sized episode.  Thanks for listening to Overhated! There are 100+ more episodes at patreon.com/scottEweinberg.
