Beau Geste thrums with action and drama as a trio of British brothers — future Oscar-winner Ronald Colman, Neil Hamilton forty years before he became Commissioner Gordon on TV's Batman, and the prolific Ralph Forbes — find themselves in the French Foreign Legion and at the mercy of a sadistic commanding officer (Noah Beery). One of Paramount Pictures' most popular films of the 1920s, Brenon's epic spectacle inspired multiple sequels, remakes, and, with this monumental restoration, can now reach modern audiences.
