Review of Southern Comfort (1981) by Michael T — 16 Sep 2008
It's ironic that one of the best films ever made about Viet Nam is set in the Louisiana Bayou. "Southern Comfort," a story about National Guardsmen who tick off some Cajuns and are then picked off one by one, creates great tension by balancing the themes of "stranger in a strange land" and "who can you trust?" It's not until the final frame of the film that you find out how things turn out for the two protagonists, well played by Powers Boothe and Keith Carradine.
