5a4) Considered by many cinema buffs to be director William Friedkin's underappreciated third straight masterpiece following the one-two punch of The French Connection and The Exorcist, 1977's long-lost Sorcerer starring Roy Scheider has finally gotten a widescreen Blu-ray release this month. Inspired by the Georges Arnaud novel The Wages of Fear, the film focuses on four men — a Mexican hitman, an Arab terrorist, an American hood, and a disgraced French businessman — who are hiding out in an impoverished South American oil town. The quarrelling gang gets contracted as truck drivers to deliver unstable explosives to the site of a raging oil well fire. The story is just as socially relevant today as when it came out.

ESQ: You were the first film director to give Tangerine Dream a film score. How did you discover them?

WF: I was over there [in Germany] doing promotion for The Exorcist and some young guy told me about this incredible group with this extraordinary sound. They played an abandoned 18th-century church in the Black Forest at midnight with no lights on them, just the light of their electronic instruments, and it was hypnotic and trancelike. I met the leader, a guy named Edgar Froese, and told him I didn't know what film I was going to do next but I was going to come to him to do the score. About a year and a half later I sent him the script, told him the story of the film over the phone, and said, "Just write your impressions of what I've told you and what you read." He mailed me a score about seven or eight months later never having seen the film. On April 3, 2014, I was in Copenhagen where the new Tangerine Dream, which is still led by Edgar Froese, gave a live concert of the score. They played two hours of the music from Sorcerer expanded by stuff I didn't use. They got the old instruments back and played to an absolutely packed house that was mesmerized. They're releasing that as a live album.

Namath is the NFL's greatest character. Guaranteed. The Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback who guaranteed his three-touchdown underdog New York Jets would beat the mighty Baltimore Colts in the third Super Bowl was a solid choice in balloting conducted by The Associated Press in conjunction with the league's celebration of its 100th season.
