Conquest (1937)

I quite enjoyed the first third or so of this movie. During it, a former Polish peasant turned countess (to a much older count) worships Napoleon, but is alarmed to find out that he is interested in her romantically. When her country asks her to indulge him for their sake, she obliges and falls in love.

But then things get very blah moviewise. It's never downright bad, but it did take me a couple of weeks to finish up the watching as I stopped being interested in how things were going to conclude.
