In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

Is this on JBO Max?

As that's coming to the UK end of March, currently the only way for me to watch it is I think via Sky/NOW tv with their stupid lock in non-monthly subscription?

'The Wages of Fear' - 1953 original not the remake (if there was one loosely based on it).

Also the restored version I watched from the BFI is a very good looking version.

Wages of Fear is a classic, though the newer adaptation by Friedkin, Sorcerer, stands on its own, though less political.
Sorcerer not being a remake but a new adaptation of the book, à la Three Musketeers and its countless retellings on film.

Both were very well restored.  :wub:

Thanks Duque for reminder me, that's on my list also.

Ironic that 'Wages of Fear' is about a US oil company struggling with oil infrastructure in the South American countryside only a few hundreds of kilometres from Caracas. :hmm:

In a couple of years time, maybe it could be updated to the current times?
