Beau Travail (1999)
This film focuses on ex-Foreign Legion officer, Galoup, as he recalls his once glorious life, leading troops in the Gulf of Djibouti. His existence there was happy, strict and regimented, but the arrival of a promising young recruit, Sentain, plants the seeds of jealousy in Galoup's mind. He feels compelled to stop him from coming to the attention of the commandant who he admires, but who ignores him. Ultimately, his jealousy leads to the destruction of both Sentain and himself.

Lovely ending but I preferred Napoleon Dynamite. Also, i'm not sure if "just kill yourself you boring dick" was an expected feeling towards the end of this moving picture full of sand, salt and gay ballet.

Sometimes you just have to shrug and say, "I don't get it." There's some beautiful cinematography, juxtaposing a salt desert with sweaty men's torsos. It's a little too atmospheric for me, with a theme of repression that went so far as to even repress most of the plot.

Has a movie ever so efficiently offered a passionate critique of toxic masculinity, imperialism, and the clandestine intersections between them? The film's an expression of the fall of empire and, with it, a dismantling of the mythology of manhood. It questions what happens to the personal identity of soldiers when stripped to a brutal essence, especially as they're forced to adapt to a foreign world. It's also gorgeous in its unusual visuals. It's a film of rare, understated power.
