Saw it on youtube.. I am passing as I am watching some youtube *audiobook* page. I am watching a 6 hour book on The Eastern Front in the eyes of an actual German soldier, just finished chapter1. His first person account is very intense, still on the year 1940when he got to Poland and just starting the fight with Russians 1941./

It’s not “The Last Remake of Beau Geste” with Marty Feldman, 1977 (as I posted here way back) but the 1939 original version of “Beau Geste” from 1939 with Gary Cooper, Ray Milland, and Robert Preston.

The Danish "puzzle devil" has struck again, always waiting in the background for another chance! :lol: :thumbsup:

Beau Geste (1939 film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beau_Geste_(1939_film)

The movie: https://www.facebook.com/Quandoalcinema ... 828954450/

I love these old movies, especially in black and white. :wink:

Your turn, Herr Waleed...


Hans

P.S. You are right, the different old versions can be easily confused... :wink:

Ups, the 1939 one is the first remake… so I’ve only seen the remakes. Shame on me!
If anyone feels like posting a new one before I find something to post, please feel free to do so. I’ll be bak.
