I remember watching the 1930s version of this movie after I left the Regular Army, on late night TV. I never knew the story before then, but I could definitely relate to the protagonist. I came from a military family as well, and it was expected of me to blindly follow in their footsteps. I did my time, took my release and moved on to civilian life. I liked being a soldier, but hated the Army. I was the proverbial square peg in a round hole. I could see it broke my father’s heart, and his peers could not understand why I was “throwing away a brilliant career”. I was verbally berated by all but my father who loved me as most fathers do. One year after getting out, I got a recall offering me a full reinstatement to an administrative position. This was just before the First Persian Gulf War. I wanted nothing to do with what looked like trading blood for oil. Even though it was an administrative position rather than a combat position, I still turned it down. I suppose those who could not understand my decision never will.

You should write a short story, or a Bio about that. Would make a great play and a modern parody of this film. Perhaps they could show it after this, to drive the point home. I admire anyone who has to go against their entire world for what they believe in. But personally, I think you made the wrong decision, albeit probably for the right reasons. Perhaps it’s the other way round? Life is so complicated and unpredictable, we can’t see around the corners of our future. I would never cast judgement on anyone for doing what they want to do in life, especially a stranger. Friends and family should always support each other no matter what, respect other’s life choices and do anything in their power to help them, within sound reason. Sometimes though there’s no right answer either way. Especially for a family who is regimental. That’s an indoctrination and a whole way of life that’s impossible really to break, for the family as a whole I mean. It would be extremely interesting and fascinating to know exactly what your family members thought and said about you, and how they treated you. Did they ever change their minds, even a little bit? The lesson behind all this, is about the Human Spirit and Love. How people react to things instinctively and later modify their opinions after more careful consideration, or not? It’s about the challenges in life that we all face, making tough life changing choices and dealing and suffering with the effects and consequences. I do have a small modicum of personal experience that I can relate to you, but I shan’t elaborate as it’s boring and unnecessary to. I’m sure they’re many also who can relate in some shape or form, which is why it’s such a powerful and emotive story. Would your relatives be willing and able to regail their experiences about you resigning? Both at the time and later on.? That would really make the story come to life, to convey the pure unadulterated words, feelings and actions. To see through the eyes of the family, equally as yours, how they wrestled with their problem personally and how much they saw the different sides to the issue, how that played out, changed and how much they moved their positions, if at all. I mean it’s quite the conundrum isn’t it? Lastly I just say that what you chose to do was right for you and it’s not right to force or pressure anyone, to live a life other than their own. You still did serve the country and developed as a person that’s the main thing. It’s extremely important to acknowledge that civilians are still serving their country in some way, perhaps moreso than a military capacity? And if we ever were invaded, then you’d still be helping in some way on the home front. Even by teaching others and helping with training, you could do more than just your own worth’s amount. The skills you learned are with you for life and just by becoming the person who you are and everything on your life journey that helped make you, that’s the important thing and invaluable, for making you you. Sorry to ramble on, but that’s what I mean about it being such an inspiring and stimulating story.

This happened in my family. My father was presented with the feathers. He was having a drink, and ladies handed him feathers. He was badly wounded, having lost his eye in December 1941 in Cyrenaica. Someone said to these ladies that they should not be handing out feathers to badly wounded soldiers. The ladies then requested that my dad return the feathers. My dad then inquired of the ladies "why are you handing out feathers?". They replied that their sons, husbands and brothers were fighting "over there". My dad replied "don't EVER hand these out again. The war over there is just killing people. We need our young men to stay home.". Handing out feathers is a despicable act, and so are the women who hand them out.

Wikipedia: The Four Feathers is a 1978 British television film adaptation of the classic novel The Four Feathers by novelist A.E.W. Mason. Directed by Don Sharp, this version starred Beau Bridges, Robert Powell, Simon Ward and Jane Seymour, and was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award. It follows the novel almost exactly, and response to the film was very positive.

Harry later redeemed Ethne's feather by debunking her father's favourite war story. 2 - By revealing himself to the blind Durrance, it ruled out the excellent 39 scene where Durrance is telling the story of the curious fellow who rescued him and then tried to rob him; pulling out a wallet from which his feather falls. 3 - In the 39 version, Harry himself realizes that Ethne should also give him a feather and suggests it.

My sister stood in back of him and said (with her hands on her hips) something about him going bald. lol Fifteen year old being cute. He turned around and laughed. That was my sister. Take on the world Anna. Died of breast cancer in 2000. Missing her tonight. I've had it also. It would be an amazing accomplishment of man if a cure could be found. / Thanks Super for sharing this. :)

I believe I saw a black-and-white version of this story decades ago - and I vaguely recall seeing at least some of this film decades ago. Yes, Jane Seymour was a peach. However, I need to do some research to ascertain why this British production featured an American actor in the lead. Speaking of Beau Bridges, he was a handsome lad - and his accent was convincing enough for me - surprisingly so. Last point: About 10 days ago I was on a binge that included watching "Breaker Morant" for the first time, learning more about Field Marshal Lord Kitchener, and watching "March Or Die" for the first time. "Four Feathers" crossed my mind during that stretch. It's nice to watch a story about redemption - I was about to type "revenge." Payback was involved but not in a malicious way. We make mistakes and sometimes we get the chance to correct them.

The footage of the troops marching through town as the regiment leaves is from the 1939 movie of the same name. Actually, there is quite a bit of footage from that movie in this one.

This has been one of my favourite story for most of my life. So much so that I once visited the city of Suakim in the Sudan whilst on a job in Port Sudan. This city is mentioned in an older version of the film staring Ralph Richardson. I finally decided to read the book by A.E.W. Mason. What a shock.... it was one of the worse book I ever read. Thank God for movie writers who made the story more interesting. This version is very good but I prefered the most recent version with Heath Ledger. By the way, their hair is really like that as described by Kippling as fuzzy wuzzy.

I don't really find it noble at all. After my grandmother told me the story of giving her fiancé a white feather before WW1, like so many women did, and him not coming back, it is all too tragic to be noble. She eventually married a man 10 years older than her after the war. The WW1 white feather campaign, championed by the suffragettes, is what killed off the feminist movement, at least in the UK, until that generation started to die off in the 1960s.

How many parents want to relive their lives thru their children and the children are so unhappy, angry, and resentful. Then the parents don’t understand what’s the matter… only that a child should have choice over their own life’s course.

Hi Suaad if that is your genuine profile picture you are absolutely gorgeous. Check out the 1939 version of this movie also called "The 4 Feathers". There was a 1950's version called "Storm Over the Nile". A modern version was made in the early 2000's which starred Heath Ledger and Kate Hudson. For historical accuracy check out the movie "Khartoum" which tells the true story of General Gordon starring Charlton Heston which was made in the 1950's. Happy New Year.

I have such problems with the lead character, as written. In the scene where he faces his father, (whom he's admittedly shamed), he states at once that he, indeed, deserves being branded a coward. Then, in the next moment, lays the blame for his cowardice on his father. To be sure, his father is not a psychologist and lacks moderation. But--Harry made the decision to burn letters for his fellow officers and, thereby, put his selfishness ahead of any other consideration. Incredible to me, this attitude! He states that he understood even at a young age, that his father saw his lack of confidence and was trying to make him become resolved to live by his family's code of honor.. If he understood that, why not take it in the spirit in which, (he admits), he knew it was meant? There's nothing noble in having made a choice that he couldn't take pride in, or support.

What A Great Story? First Off, I've now Viewed this Version 3 Time's now. The Newer Release with Heath Ledger & Kate Hudson. I have also seen 3 Time's. Both are Excellent!! Though I do Admit. My Definite Preference is this Much Earlier Adaptation, of this Great Story. Over the Decade's since First seeing this Film, 📽️📽️ I Never really cared for Beau Bridges, Acting or Stylings. Yet now & more recently. I have Come too Change My Option, of Him. In this He was Fantastic, throughout in His Role. As for Jane Seymour? That is a Woman? Who I Could've & Still Would even Today Risked Everything For. To Regain First Her Respect Back, & then Hopefully Her LOVE in the END. As I Implied, this Story & Film we're Stupendous to View again for Me. Thank You Very much For Providing it Whoever You Were.

"The first movie I ever saw in America was the greatest movie I ever saw. I think I went with my foster mother. Four Feathers with Ralph Richardson. An amazing film." -- p41 Bill Graham Presents (his autobio) All I can say after watching it is I'm speechless. I see from the comments here that this isn't even the version Uncle Bill was praising, which explains why the photography was so modern in a film he saw in mid 1940s; so I guess I'll have to watch it again another night if I can find that version.
