Sorcerer is really quite an audio-visual treat. Then on top of that, all the historically-relevant backstories. And Roy Scheider's perceptive POV slowly going off the rails. It's really amazing. It also reminds me of some of the worst scouting trips I ever went on as a kid. A sense of zero control while an adult wheeled the van over loose gravel around a drop-off corner on a one-lane logging road. Or, just driving around the backroads in various mountain ranges from the cascades to the uintas. That experience you get to have when you feel like you have reached what might be a turn in the road, but you are going uphill at quite an incline and can't see over your car's hood. So you're at 12K feet and glad your car is in good running shape, but you have to roll down your window and lean your upper body outside to check that you're not about to drive your family off a cliff. As the car gently noses over when you finally reach the turn, the first landform you see is a 10K+ peak about 15 miles away. Then you see the valley full of cities 8K feet below you. Rinse and repeat on the cliffs of highway 1 near the lost coast, dodging landslides and massive rock falls in the coastal ranges during rain storms just before you have to stop to lose your lunch, arriving at the perimeter of your camp site to find the highway bridge was lost to the river, etc. Just unpacking some road memories here I guess :-)
