Product Description

The Four Feathers (1929)

Directors:

 Merian C. Cooper, Lothar Mendes

Writers:

 A.E.W. Mason (novel), Hope Loring (adaptation)

Stars:

 Richard Arlen, Fay Wray, Clive Brook
 
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.

  1. Very good transfer of a 1929 silent film 5 Star Review

    Posted by on Apr 2nd 2024

    Probably the only remaining silent version of "The Four Feathers" (the earlier two seem to be lost films). I was pleasantly surprised by the authenticity of the kit and uniforms - even the Egyptian soldiers were wearing the proper uniforms. Another plus is an appearance of actor William Powell as one of the officers. While it is not quite in the same league as the 1930s remake it stands well on its own.

  2. Excellent 5 Star Review

    Good copy of silent movie, full of old equipment, many original artefacts etc
    The familiar story done in spectacular style. Astonishing scenes of wildlife. A quality copy on a workable dvd, very pleased.

  3. great silent adventure film 5 Star Review

    Posted by on Feb 14th 2018

    Wonderful, non-stop action from the future director of "King Kong." Silent (you won't hear Fay Wray scream),it has an exuberant musical score &, as you might expect from this director, much exciting animal as well as human action. I much prefer it to the better known remake 10 years later.
