Movie Description
'Twin' brothers (one is Feldman and the other Michael York) trying to escape from their wicked and voluptuous step-mother, join the French foreign legion. This uproarious comedy marked Feldman's directorial debut.
Synopsis
This spoof of Foreign Legion movies centers on Beau and his runt-of-the-litter brother Digby, the two adopted sons of lecherous Sir Hector Geste. Beau, disturbed by his father's recent marriage to a money-grubbing swinger, takes off and joins the French Foreign Legion. The inept Digby later comes along to be with his brother, but not before serving time in -- and breaking out of -- prison for stealing a gem. The siblings proceed to create comedic mayhem in the desert and in the Legion... neither of which will ever be the same again.
Film Notes
Color by Technicolor.
Industry Reviews
"...[Feldman's] own frontal assault on cinema tradition and sensibility....Its laughs come...from the sense of discovery..."
