Beau Geste (1939)
I vincitori degli Oscar Gary Cooper e Ray Milland recitano insieme a Robert Preston nell'epica avventura Beau Geste. Quando tre fratelli si uniscono alla Legione Straniera per sfuggire a un passato travagliato, si ritrovano intrappolati sotto il comando di un sergente sadico nel profondo del Sahara infuocato. Ora i fratelli devono combattere per le loro vite mentre complottano l'ammutinamento contro la tirannia e difendono una fortezza nel deserto contro un nemico brutale. Nominato per 2 Academy Awards, Beau Geste è stato universalmente acclamato da generazioni di critici e pubblico come un vero classico del cinema.
