Tonight's Stinker: Fear and Desire (1952)

Tonight's Stinker Fear and Desire (1952) https://youtu.be/CmL6B57tjZE?si=EUx8uTQu-fbWkew5 Starts with a confusing narration about how none it is real.... Four soldiers are trapped behind enemy lines..... They need to walk to a river & build a raft, but before they can float away, things go sideways.... The men bicker, the leader pontificates, they kill some enemy soldiers for their guns & kidnap a local girl, & two of the men lose it... The page mentioned Stanley Kubrick, so I thought it was worth a try.... Artsy & confusing, lots of corny references to The Tempest... Plenty of close-ups of people's faces while someone else is talking, kinda like in Beast Of The Yucca Flats...
