A Farewell To Arms (1957, Unrated)
Wonderful rendtition. Hudson has the Hemingway look- big and strong and rather suave. The story was as much given the taste of the book as a movie could do. The screen lovers [Rock Hudson & Jennifer Jones] were well casted because the scenes where they had to convey being in love were somewhat tense and sparking. The location & backdrop were used very well, providing for the characters mood and the story's atmosphere where necessary. Emotive and compelling; sharp and sensible; an A++...I beleive there hasn't been a re-make, that's because this film was worth the time & effort. The book is super; this movie did not take away from that. |
