	Beau Geste (1939)
		Beau Geste (1939) is director/producer William Wellman's superb, high adventure tale set in the desert - a classic melodramatic, rousing film of the late 30s from Paramount Studios.
		Beau stages a mock Viking's funeral with a 'dead' toy sailor, placing a toy dog at the sailor's feet and setting the miniature sailing ship on fire.
		The grown "Beau" again protects her with a gallant gesture to spare Lady Patricia further humiliation and embarrassment.

	Beau Geste (1939)

	Blockbuster Online - Beau Geste
		Beau is seriously wounded, and while the greedy Markov searches for the jewel supposedly hidden on Beau's person, he is held at bay by loyal John.
		The suddenly enervated Beau kills Markov, then dies himself--but not before entrusting two notes to John, one of which requests that John give Beau the "Viking funeral" he'd always wanted (this is why the fort is in flames at the beginning of the film).
		One of the boys, young Beau (played as a youth by Donald O'Connor), witnesses his beloved aunt (Heather Thatcher) apparently stealing a valuable family jewel in order to finance the Geste home; Beau chooses to remain silent rather than disgrace his aunt.

		Although minor plot points separate the versions, all of the versions share a common element of a stolen gem, which one of the Geste brothers, Beau Geste, is thought to have stolen from his adoptive family.
		The three Geste brothers, now adults, have lived with the family since their childhood, and their patroness, Lady Brandon, brings out the gem for one last look before it is sold.
		Beau knew of the sale because as a child, he was hiding in a suit of armor when the buyer arrived to take the gem away.

		Beau is seriously wounded, and while the greedy Markov searches for the jewel supposedly hidden on Beau's person, he is held at bay by the loyal John.
		One day, and while they were playing, Beau hid in metal armor in an attempt of adventure, he saw his aunt selling the valuable sapphire stone “blue water” and replacing it with a fake one.
		Digby (Beau’s bother), at the end, gave Beau the Viking funeral that he always dreamt of and this revealed how the director wanted to stress on the proverb that was written in the movie at the begging by dramatizing the Viking funeral.

		Beau and John, now under suspicion that they are hiding an important, valuable sapphire, undergo great cruelty along with the other men (Albert Dekker, Harold Huber, a boyish Broderick Crawford, etc), as they move to Fort Zinderneuf.

		Beau, Digby, and John Geste were brought up by their "Aunt" Pat Brandon.
		Beau at many times becomes an idealized version of who we would all like to be.
		The thoughtful viewer may from time to time wonder how he or she can so like a man who is superficially a great guy but at the same time perhaps a man who stole the only piece of security his family had.

	Beau Geste (1926)
		Lejaune is about to shoot him, but Beau grabs the killer's leg, the shot goes wild and John thrusts the bayonet through the hated officer's chest.
		Beau's epistle informs Lady Brandon that, having overheard her conversation with the Hindu and knowing she had sold the Blue Water, he had stolen the imitation stone to save her from embarrassment when her husband demanded that it be turned into cash.
		Reformers who storm against the invariable custom of a misguided industry in playing and overstressing the sex appeal are cordially invited to see "Beau Geste." It has the sex appeal of a scenic, the spirit of a Western action story and the grip of a politely told serial.

		The framework story unfolds at a painfully slow pace and the adventurous part of recruitment, training and life of the Geste brothers in the Foreign Legion is not broad enough.
		Its longwinded explanations and speculations on the characters' motivation and the possible outcome of the inherent intrigues seem terribly old fashioned for the 21st century reader.
		Beau Geste must rank very high with other all time great adventure novels.

	The Last Remake of Beau Geste Synopsis
		Beau Geste, the classic adventure story of a young man's dangerous journeys as part of the French Foreign Legion, becomes the subject of broad parody in this slapstick comedy.
		Eventually, brothers Beau and Digby find themselves in conflict with their vicious commander, leading to a potential mutiny.
		The plot here is similar, with Michael York assuming Gary Cooper's role as Beau, and first-time director Marty Feldman co-starring as Digby.

	Beau Geste Synopsis
		Beau Geste (Guy Stockwell) is forced to take the blame for a crime he didn't commit in order to protect the good name of his family; he and his brother John (Doug McClure) flee the country to avoid capture and join the French Foreign Legion.
		Under the leadership of the sadistic Sgt. Major Dagineau (Telly Savalas), Beau and John must battle Arab troops as they try to clear their names.
		For this more budget-minded adaptation of the story, the three Geste brothers were whittled down to two; Wren's story wasn't filmed again until Marty Feldman's send-up of the Foreign Legion epics, The Last Remake of Beau Geste, appeared in 1977.

	Movie Reviews by Edwin Jahiel
		The 1926 original movie was by prolific H. Brenon, who made 320 movies, including the first (1926) of the three "The Great Gatsby" films.
		Brenon's Geste starred Ronald Colman, William Powell and Victor McLaglen, all beautifully cast.
		The third version, in 1966, is laughable, more boo-boo than Beau, more jest than Geste.
