The Four
Feathers
(1929)
|
This late silent film adaptation of the A.E.W. Mason classic novel, directed by Ernest B. Schoedsack, Merian C. Cooper and Lothar Mendes, stars Richard Arlen, Fay Wray and William Powell, with Clive Brook, Theodore von Eltz and George Fawcett.
We’re glad that Arlen didn’t wear a moustache all the time.
