2.0 out of 5 stars OVER AGE JENNIFER Feb 21 2002
By HOWARD MORLEY
Format:VHS Tape
...Hemingway would have nothing to do with this adaption from his novel but the main criticism levied at Selznick is his wife at 38 was too old to play a young British nurse in Italy during WW1 opposite Rock Hudson as the American male nurse.The landscape and battle scenes were good but he was not being realistic casting his wife in this role.Selznick was still lookong for a sequel to "Gone with the Wind" which he had previously just failed with in "Duel in the Sun", but this film drags and the birth scene despite edits, remains too long.So much of the plot seems to have been truncated and reduced to a mere orthodox love story so there is not enough in the plot to sustain the time it runs.Incidentally the year "1932" that hangs as a title above is incorrect.This filmed version was made in 1957.I believe the Gary Cooper version was made in 1932 and in B&W not in colour as here.

4.0 out of 5 stars overly saturated, epic saga Sep 26 2001
By Byron Kolln
Format:VHS Tape
An overly-saturated, epic saga, the Charles Vidor remake of the Helen Hayes classic A FAREWELL TO ARMS works on the screen performances of Jennifer Jones and Rock Hudson.

In the winter of 1917, an American ambulance driver (Rock Hudson) enlists in the Italian army and is wounded in action. He is gradually restored to health by a beautiful young nurse (Jennifer Jones).

When they find themselves falling in love, they try to escape the horrors of the war by fleeing to Switzerland to seek peace and happiness. There fate is again waiting to thwart their plans.

This poignant and tragic love story, based on Ernest Hemingway's famous novel of the same name, is again brought to the screen, this time by David O'Selznick as a starring vehicle for his wife Jennifer Jones.

Remade as IN LOVE AND WAR starring Sandra Bullock and Chris O'Donnell.

5.0 out of 5 stars "A beautiful love story among the perils of war." July 16 1999
By A Customer
Format:VHS Tape
This is a beautifully shot movie set in Italy during WWI. It is based on Ernest Hemmingway's novel "A farewell to arms", as well as on the play, also named "A farewell to arms". Rock Hudson's performance is spectacular, he portray life-like realistic emotion which ranges from pure joy to pain and frustration. This story is about love that overcame all possible boundries and survived until death. Rock Hudson is gorgeous and I found myself having to bite my lips at times!! wow what a looker..!! forget renting this one...buy it, trust me YOU WILL LOVE IT!! but just a hint.. get a box of kleenex for the ending, I BAWLED!!
