Quotes
Lieutenant Frederic Henry:
We've never been apart, really. Not since we met.
Catherine Barkley:
Not since we met.
Lieutenant Frederic Henry:
And never can be.
Catherine Barkley:
Never apart.
Lieutenant Frederic Henry:
In life and in death. Say it Cat.
Catherine Barkley:
In life and in death, we'll never be parted.

You do believe that, don't you, Cat?

I believe it, and I'm not afraid.
Goofs
A night attack is shown. During World War I there was very little flying at night and the night attacks that did occur were limited to big cities. It was almost impossible for a plane to attack specific targets in a large city, so effectively attacking people on a road in the dark was not possible, and did not happen.
Crazy Credits
In the original 1932 credits, the credits are punctuated by aerial bomb blasts, and every time there is a blast, a credit disappears to be replaced by the next one.
