The Four Feathers

This was another period piece that I thought was very insightful. I liked the view of the British Empire from a person who didn't approve of what they were doing. The main character had to prove he was no longer a coward because of his friends and fiance made him feel bad. I thought it was a silly decision but important to have for a storyline.

I liked the movie and it had some good acting by:

Heath Ledger, Wes Bentley, Kate Hudson, Rupert Penry-Jones, Djimon Hounsou, Michael Sheen, Kris Marshall, Alek Wek, Lucy Gordon, Alex Jennings, Tim Pigott-Smith


Netflix Summary:

In 1898 Sudan, Harry Faversham (Heath Ledger), a British officer, resigns his post right before a battle against rebels (the battle of Omdurman), prompting his fiancée (Kate Hudson) and three friends to give him four white feathers as a symbol of what they perceive to be cowardice. Little do they know he's going undercover and may soon have the chance to redeem himself in their eyes. This classic adventure is based on the novel by A.E.W. Mason.
