I saw Rogue's March this weekend, and it is indeed an unsung classic tale of The Great Game. Peter Lawford stars as a young Captain of the Royal Midland Fusiliers whose life and career are turned upside down as he is framed for treason. He makes his way to the Northwest Frontier to ultimately set things right. Some have branded this movie as a "poor man's Four Feathers, and I could understand someone calling this movie a British Branded. But there's more to this movie than that. While this film lacks much of the complexity of The Four Feathers, it redeems itself with its intrigue and action. The manner in which the Russians set our protagonist up is pretty interesting, and the battle scenes are superb. For someone like me, who thinks there are too few movies with pith helmets in the prop department, this was a treat.
