Movie review - "Southern Comfort" (1981) **** (rewatching)

 Always worth checking out again. Wonderful look - photography, locations, etc. The acting very fine. It's a love story in a way between Keith Carradine and Powers Booth - the scene between them around the campfire is positively romantic. A lot of the plot involves the soldiers being stupid - stealing canoes, firing at locals, splitting up, leaving safety - but you can't say that sort of stuff doesn't happen. Wonderful last act.
