Ernest Hemingway's tragic wartime romance comes to vivid life in this classic 1932 film starring Oscar winners Gary Cooper and Helen Hayes and co-starring Adolphe Menjou. The cataclysm of WW1 sets the stage for an impassioned story of star-crossed love between a daring American ambulance driver (Cooper) braving death at the front lines and an English nurse (Hayes) in an army hospital.The tumult of war conspires to push the pair together and then wrench them apart in what becomes an ultimate test of love. Based on Hemingway's own experiences in The Great War, A FAREWELL TO ARMS was the first of the author's novels to reach the screen and enthralled movie audiences with its heart-rendering romance and the realistic visions of battle.The startling imagery was captured by renowned director Frank Borzage and photographed in luminous black and white by Charles B. Lang, who won an Academy Award for his artistry.
