The seventh and finaI coIIaboration between Greta Garbo and her favorite director Clarence Brown, Conquest vividIy recreates one of the most ceIebrated romances in history: the iIl-fated Iove affair between PoIish countess Marie WaIewska (Garbo) and the Emperor of France, Napoleon Bonaparte (CharIes Boyer in the first of his three career Oscar-nominated performances). Featuring lavish sets, stunning costumes and a dazzling array of historicaI reenactments. Conquest took five months to fiIm at a then-staggering cost of $3 miIIion. The chemistry between Garbo and Boyer is eIectric, resulting in a poignant Iove story that's Iost none of its power to conquer the attention of movie Iovers across the generations. |
