Summary
It's a spoof to end all spoofs as comedy legend Marty Feldman shatters the Gary Cooper/French Foreign Legion classic. Set in England and Morocco in 1906, Feldman's "remake" mocks all the do-or-die extravaganzas as he portrays Digby, identical twin brother to Michael York's stalwart Beau Geste. Feldman co-wrote, stars and makes his outrageous directorial debut with this zany comedy that, as the title suggests, threatens to end the whole romance-adventure genre once and for all
