Three British soldiers -- Sgt. Cutter (Cary Grant), Sgt. Ballantine (Douglas Fairbanks Jr.) and Sgt. McChesney (Victor McLaglen) -- are sent to India to investigate sabotaged telegraph wires. Ballantine's loyalties are divided, however, since all he longs for is to settle down with his beloved (Joan Fontaine). When the soldiers discover the hideout of their biggest enemy, all bets are off in this 1939 George Stevens classic.
