2 Fast 2 Forever #447 – Sorcerer (1977)
Fan favorite Garrett Smith returns to the podcast to make us a three-man team, trekking across the jungle, and talking about Sorcerer! After sharing the crazy backstory behind this movie (and admiring the equally crazy filmmaking of William Friedkin), we talk about how stressful Sorcerer is — even if you’ve seen it before. We talk about the story of four doomed men, the incredible Tangerine Dream score, and an era of guys filming crazy things in movies that have never been seen before and will never be seen again. Joey tells the tale of Marvin the Torch. We talk about the immediacy of the tragedy in the film, as well as its ties to both Fast & Furious and Fast Five — and a theory for Fast Forever. “Where am I going?”
