(John Boorman, US 1972, 110 min.)

Survivalist. Four “civilized” businessmen confront “primitive” man, one another, and ultimately themselves when their back-to-nature weekend takes a harrowing turn. Boorman’s haunting adaptation of James Dickey’s novel remains a shattering exploration of survival, the American myth, and the darkest corners of the self.
