Beau, John, and Digby Geste are three inseparable, adventurous brothers who haven been adopted into the wealthy household of Lady Brandon. When money in the uppercrust household grows tight, Lady Brandon is forced to sell her most treasured jewel the mighty "Blue Water" sapphire. The household gets it out for one final look, the lights go out and it vanishes stolen by one of the brothers, no doubt. That night, Beau, Digby, and John each "confess" and slip out, John leaving behind Isabel, whom he loves. They all join the Foreign Legion, and Beau and Digby are split from John and put under the command of the ruthless and sadistic Sergeant Markoff. Things begin to get hairy as the rest of the Legionaires plot a mutiny against Markoff, in the midst of an attack by Arab hordes.
Three adopted English brothers join the French Foreign Legion in North Africa, after one of them steals their adoptive family's famous heirloom sapphire.
've only rarely had this reaction to a movie before: at the time I'm watching it, I can't wait for it to be over, and days later as it mellows in my head, I realize it was a pretty good movie. Beau Geste is a classic war film, and it's the type of movie that could have been nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, but it happened to be released during a highly competitive year.
Three brothers, Gary Cooper, Ray Milland, and Robert Preston, are close to their aunt, Heather Thatcher. Heather's entire means of support comes from a massive blue sapphire, but when money is tight and she has to make arrangements to sell the family heirloom, the brothers make a move to protect her that has drastic consequences. Someone steals the sapphire, and the other brothers chase after him. All three wind up in the French Foreign Legion, and under the mercy of tough commander Brian Donlevy, who gives an Oscar-nominated performance.
Besides Heather, and a couple of romantic scenes between Susan Hayward and Ray Milland, there are no other women in the movie. This is a macho, brotherly love movie about soldiers and the bonds of friendship being thicker than blood. Brian is the typical tough sergeant we've come to know and love in the movies, but he's incredible smart, shrewd, and a great soldier. Even though he does tend to be heavy handed in his punishments, the audience can't help but admire his war strategy.
One absolutely darling bonus to the movie is a scene early on showing the household growing up as children together. Fourteen-year-old Donald O'Connor plays young Gary Cooper! He's such a doll, you'll wish a more likable counterpart was cast as his grown-up self. I never find Gary very likable, and since he's the title character and responsible for the entire mess of the movie, I couldn't help but wish he'd had better decision-making skills. If someone like Errol Flynn had been cast as Beau Geste, I probably wouldn't mind what he does. Errol's charming, magnetic, and seems like he has good intentions, which is how Beau Geste's character was supposed to be.
If you like war movies that shy away from blood and guts, since it was made in 1939, you'll probably want to rent Beau Geste. It's a classic, and easily confused with Gunga Din, Four Feathers, and Under Two Flags, but there's an enormously eerie scene in the beginning of the film that you'll never forget. What is so bone-chilling, you wonder? You'll have to watch it to find out.
In a year that has gone down as arguably the one producing the greatest number of Oscar worthy films, "Beau Geste" stands as one that the Academy watchers might have overlooked in the Best Picture category, no mean feat as there were a total of ten contenders that year. I had no idea what the title of the picture referred to and was surprised that it was the name of one of a trio of brothers. Beau Geste, the oldest, was admirably portrayed by Gary Cooper, with Ray Milland and Robert Preston offering commendable support as brothers John and Digby. They all wind up heading off for the French Foreign Legion following the lights out theft of a valuable 'Blue Water' sapphire that was destined for sale by their adoptive aunt and benefactor. Even though Beau Geste confesses to the theft in a note left behind to brother John, the circumstances of the event and each brother's wish to cover for the others leaves the question in doubt throughout the story until the surprising conclusion is revealed.
The film parlays a distinct cat and mouse game with the viewer as one of the opening events follows a Legion cavalry arriving at a distressed Fort Zinderneuf that had been under siege by warring Arab Tuaregs. With no one left alive at the fort, a reconstruction of events tells the story of Beau and John under the command of a vicious Sergeant Markoff (Brian Donlevy), who's glory hound ambitions are almost shattered by a potential mutiny among the troops. Though the brothers stand virtually alone in their respect for flag and country, they're forced to join the mutineers in defense of the fort when the Tuaregs launch their repeated attacks.
Fans of adventure films set in a foreign locale ought to find this one memorable, especially if you're a devotee of the classics done in glorious black and white. It was made in the spirit of another 1939 actioner set in India featuring a similar trio of adventurers titled "Gunga Din". A few years earlier, Gary Cooper starred in "The Lives of a Bengal Lancer" also set on the Indian sub-continent, while sharing a good natured rivalry as a lieutenant with two newly assigned junior officers. But the picture I immediately thought of when I caught the first glimpse of the Foreign Legion outpost was the Laurel and Hardy comedy "Beau Hunks" from 1931. In that one, Stan and Ollie, along with virtually every other forlorn recruit, attempt to mend their broken hearts over a picture of the unattainable Jean Harlow.
Getting back to "Beau Geste", there's only one thing that still bothers me about the story, and that's the final reveal in Beau's post mortem letter to his Aunt Pat back home. If in fact he had switched the fabled Blue Water Sapphire with a fake as a child, how did he manage to 'steal' the real one when the lights went out, or did he have it all the while?
