What's left behind the scenes
- Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) strongly disliked this interpretation of his 1929 novel. He found it overly romantic. However, this did not prevent him from befriending Gary Cooper (1901-1961), the film's lead actor, whom he met several years after the film's release. Moreover, Hemingway insisted that Cooper play the lead role in the 1943 film adaptation of his 1940 novel “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” directed by Sam Wood (1883-1949). Be that as it may, Hemingway and Cooper never discussed this film.
- Early versions of the screenplay ran into trouble with censorship due to their depiction of childbirth, as well as references to struggles, gas, groans of pain, and bleeding. Once these details were removed, the script was approved, but the film was never released in British Columbia or Australia, where Hemingway’s novel was banned.
- Cinema managers were offered copies of the film with two endings to choose from (one happy, one not). When news of this reached Hemingway, he was furious, so cinemas in major cities subsequently began receiving copies with only the unhappy ending, consistent with the ending of the source novel.
