Review of Fear and Desire

For those curious to view this early effort from Kubrick, a beautiful print can now be streamed via Amazon Prime. I can understand why Kubrick wanted to destroy any prints of this -- it's an amateurish effort that doesn't begin to hint at the great films to come. Still, for film freaks, it's a curiosity that's hard to resist.

By the way -- that exploitive pink poster image attached to this page is amazing in its lack of any accurate sense of the film!
