    Summary: 
    "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 WWI 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 largely 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-rending romance and the realistic visions of battle. The startling imagery was captured by renowned director Frank Borzage and photographed in luminous black and while by Charles B. Lang, who won an Academy Award for his artistry. Already a well-known leading man, Gary Cooper rose to the status of screen icon with the release of A FAREWELL TO ARMS. The film also showcased a powerful performance by Helen Hayes, then a great star of the American stage, in one of her rare early film roles. Due in part to censorship codes of the day, this theatrical version of the film has seldom been seen and was through lost. This DVD has been remastered from the finest available nitrate print and restores this Hollywood masterwork to its rightful glory."--Container.
