Review of Union Pacific (1939) by John R — 10 Aug 2016
The paper thin characters and distracting use of studio sound stages in conjunction with the outdoor photography is a difficult hurtle to get over, but DeMille's genuine zeal for the "unity of the Nation" and an epic scale are undeniably appealing.
Not even Barbara Stanwyck's fake Irish accident could bring down her performance.
