Runtime: 80 min.
Genre: adventure
Print Quality: B
This was the third screen version of A.E.W. Mason's oft-filmed novel
about one soldier's triumph over cowardice and was the last rendering
during the silent era. Here, Richard Arlen stars as Harry Faversham, the
British officer who resigns rather than fight against rebels in Egypt. When
four of his former colleagues present him with feathers signifying their
belief that he's a coward, Faversham has a change of heart, and posing
as an Arab, he goes on a potentially deadly mission to rescue captured
British forces. Fay Wray also appears as Ethne Eustance. Wray and
directors Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack would reunite four
years later for another classic tale of adventure, King Kong.
