Title: Cooper/DeMille & Loads Of Fun!
Review: Unconquered is two-and-a-half hours of non-stop adventure set during the French-and-Indian War. It is also a wonderful love story. Gary Cooper and Paulette Goddard provide the fun with their on-again/off-again romance. It also has several spectacular set pieces, one of which is now a classic -- when Cooper and Goddard go over the waterfalls in a canoe. What's interesting about this is that DeMille doesn't simply toss this sequence in; rather, he sets it up with an earlier sequence in which Cooper stands under a rock outcrop by the waterfalls and studies an overhanging branch. The scene seems out of place and without purpose at the moment. But then comes the canoe and the falls and it all makes sense. This is prime DeMille hokum. Check it out.
