Beau Geste - BBC (1982)




If you never watched this film or read P.C. Wren's adventure classic, you should check it out here.  Great story about the French Foreign Legion (Legion Etrangere)!

The Four Feathers (1939)




This is such a great movie! It really captures the time period well. I had heard that they actually had real Dervishes in the cast. I really love the appearance of the gunboat at battle for Karthoum (something that was missing from the 2002 version, not to mention the Nile).

Zulu Dawn (1979)


For me this was the movie that sparked my interest in Victorian Colonialism. I was nine years old when I first saw this movie, and right away I wanted a Pith helmet and a red coat. I thought the Zulus were very interesting as well!
