Not to contradict (too much), but "Beau Sabreur" WAS made into a movie in the early 1920s. I don't know if it survives. Also, read the trilogy in the order written and published -- otherwise the "mystery" in Beau Geste is too easy to solve, since Wren gives some of the answers in BS (sorry) and clears up (almost) everything in Beau Ideal. Overall, this second book of the Geste Trilogy moves a little slower than Beau Geste, and serves in large measure to set the stage for the final denoument (did I spell that right?) in Beau Ideal
