    5 Best Ernest Hemingway Adaptations

    While Hemingway wasn’t generally a fan of the adaptations of his works, these five films are must-watches.

    ByTim Brinkhof, Nov 12, 2025

    Ernest Hemingway wasn’t a huge fan of cinema. According to his son Patrick, “pictures on the silver screen were nothing but pure illusion (…) and not to be taken seriously.” 

    His relationship with the screen, which over the course of his lifetime developed from a technological curiosity into a cultural force, was undoubtedly shaped by his identity as a writer—as an artist who expressed himself not in images but in words, and by the time of his death saw his age-old trade swept aside by a new, different medium.

    While the author himself would probably have begged to differ, the following five films are considered some of the best Hemingway adaptations out there. 

    A Farewell to Arms (1932) 

    https://www.youtube.com/embed/YYdYkHQie6M?feature=oembed

    Originally published in 1929 and based on his experience serving as an American ambulance driver during the First World War, A Farewell to Armsfollows a wounded lieutenant who falls in love with the nurse who nurses him back to health, culminating in the couple’s ill-fated attempt to leave the war behind.

    This adaptation, directed by Frank Borzage and starring Gary Cooper and Helen Hayes in the two leading roles, was nominated for four Academy Awards and ended winning two: one for Best Cinematography, and another for Best Sound. Made before the existence of codes, the film was—for a time—banned on account of its portrayal of sexuality and violence.

    For Whom the Bell Tolls (1943)

    https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZKB-Suz_2DQ?feature=oembed

    Like A Farewell to Arms, this novel was released only a few years before its big screen adaptation, in 1940. Also steeped in personal experience, it follows an American volunteer fighting against fascist forces during the Spanish Civil War. This soldier, too, falls in love, forcing him to choose between duty and happiness.

    Directed by Sam Wood, this adaptation was nominated for Best Picture. Gary Cooper returns to play the leading role, this time starring alongside Ingrid Bergman—seen for the first time in Technicolor. Aside from faithfully adapting the story, it sticks close to its themes of pacifism and the futility of war.

    The Word Hemingway Wouldn’t Replace

    By Karen Stollznow, 25 September 2025, Last update: 25/09/25 07:57

    Ernest Hemingway revolutionized more than just the style of modern prose. He also reshaped the vocabulary of literature, taking words that polite society considered unprintable and giving them cultural weight. Among them was one of the most provocative words in the English language: bitch.

    In the course of my research for Bitch: The Journey of a Word, I discovered how Hemingway and his contemporaries, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sherwood Anderson, John Steinbeck, and other so-called Lost Generation writers, helped popularize what became known as the “bitch archetype.” This formidable anti-heroine waged war in the battle of the sexes. Hemingway described these women as “the hardest, the cruelest, the most predatory, and the most attractive.” To him, they were man-eaters, femmes fatales, and “bitch goddesses” who used their beauty and power to dominate men.

    But Hemingway’s fascination with the word was also deeply personal. He infamously called his mother Grace “an all-time all-American bitch,” blaming her for, among other things, his father’s suicide. He flung the word at his literary rival Gertrude Stein, scrawling in a book inscription: “A bitch is a bitch is a bitch is a bitch,” a parody of the line from her poem “Sacred Emily,” “A rose is a rose is a rose.” Yet Stein and her partner Alice B. Toklas turned the insult on its head, commissioning dinnerware decorated with that very phrase. This was an early act of reclamation of the word.

    In Hemingway’s fiction, bitch took on new meaning. At times, the word embodied female strength, edginess, and independence. Lady Brett Ashley, the iconic heroine of The Sun Also Rises (1926), is often accused of being a bitch, and even calls herself one. Hemingway’s editor Max Perkins fought hard to keep the word in print, threatening to resign when publisher Charles Scribner balked at this “vulgarity.” Scribner declared he would sooner let guests use his parlor as a toilet than allow such profane language in his books. Yet Hemingway refused to yield: “I never used a word without first considering whether or not it was replaceable.”

  21. #Cicero wrote: “whatever is graceful is virtuous, and whatever is virtuous is graceful.” As beauty is the appearance of health in the body, #gracefulness is the appearance of virtue in the character. Conceptually we can separate virtue from gracefulness, he said but in the real world they always show up together.

    Ernest #Hemingway, when he defined “guts” as “grace under pressure,” was following this tradition of describing a virtue in terms of its graceful appearance.
