The Dryden will screen A Farewell to Arms (1932) (Frank Borzage, U.S. 1932, 95 min., 35mm) as part of the WWI series.

Ernest Hemingway's great novel was first translated to the screen in this powerfully memorable melodrama from Hollywood's Pre-Code era. Performers Gary Cooper and Helen Hayes bring to life the story of a tragic love affair between a soldier and a nurse during World War I. Recently preserved by the George Eastman Museum in collaboration with the UCLA Film and Television Archive, the film will be presented in a new 35mm print that showcases the vivid cinematography by the great Charles Lang, who won an Oscar for his achievement.
