Based upon Ernest Hemingway’s semi-autobiographical novel published in 1929, A Farewell to Arms is a tale of love, focused on the tragic romance between an ambulance driver, Lt. Henry (Gary Cooper), and a nurse (Helen Hayes) during the World War I.
This anti-war drama, set in Italy, shows one of the most thrilling visions of the power of love during war times.
José Luis Alcaine, a cinematographer who has worked with some of the most prestigious Spanish filmmakers such as Pedro Almodóvar (The Skin I Live In) and Víctor Erice (El sur), believes that when Picasso was painting the Guernica, his inspiration was cinema, and precisely, A Farewell to Arms film.
