This movie is the best adaptation of the novel, "The Four Feathers' by A.E.W. Mason, and probably one of my top ten favorite films. Well worth the $40 to buy the Criterion Collection blu-ray. The Four Feathers is about a soldier that decides not to deploy to Egypt when needed, and his friends and fiance send him 4 feathers for his cowardice. The then goes and proves that he's not a coward, and returns the feathers to each of the four people that gave him. He breaks his friends out of jail, gets one to safety, and finally shuts up his fiance's father who tells the same, inaccurate story at every dinner party.
