I would like to tell you about the film "In Love and War"directed by Richard Attenborough and starring Mackenzie Astin, Chris O'Donnell, Sandra Bullock, and Margot Steinberg.In Love and War is a 1996 romance drama film based on the book, Hemingway in Love and War by Henry S. Villard and James Nagel.This film takes place during World War I, and is based on the World War I experiences of the writer Ernest Hemingway.Furthermore, it’s interesting to point out that the film—apparently in a deliberate attempt to capture what the director called Hemingway's "emotional intensity"—takes liberties with the facts. In real life, unlike the movie, the relationship was probably never consummated, and the couple did not meet again after Hemingway left Italy.
Let's pass on to the plot. The young reporter Ernest Hemingway was sent to Italy as a soldier where he was wounded and sent to a military hospital. There he was nursed by Agnes von Kurowsky. They fell in love with each other and the woman promised to marry him after the war ends. Ernest returned to the United States while Agnes continued working as a nurse in Italy. She decided that her relation with Hemingway was a mistake and wrote him about it. Agnes was going to get married in Venice but changed her mind and was back to the USA. She visited Ernest and told about her love to him but the man rejected her love because she had hurt him earlier. They will never meet again.
Speaking about the actors, I should say that cast of the film is perfect. Chris O'Donnell and Sandra Bullock were wonderful.Their acting creates true, honest and real atmosphere. I believe their feelings! They acted so vividly like they were really fall in love with each other. And I think Chris O'Donnell is good at showing Hemingway's trasformation from a sweet boy into a well-known writer. Sandra Bullock was perfect. She was very sensitive women, I believe her passion and love.
Besides, my favorite episode is the last one when Agnes came to Ernest. She realized her mistake and was ready to share her life with him but Ernest with his pride could not forgive her. It was awful! The two people,who couldn't live without each other, separated.
As for the main themes of the film,the theme of love,war,passion,heroism.The music also was beautiful. It creates romantic atmosphere.Outdoor scenes have majestic sounds full of horns and worthy of a vast symphony. In interior scenes we are treated to intimate violin serenades.
In conclusion I would like to say that the film impressed me and opened Hemingway from a new side.I imagine him a boring person,but he was kind,honest and interesting person.Costumes and decorations created the atmosphere of the war were perfect.
