The story follows Robert Jordan (Gary Cooper), an American demolition expert who lends his unique abilities to the anti-fascist freedom fighters of Spain. Assisting him is a band of warriors that includes the strong-willed Pilar (Katina Paxinou in an Oscar®- winning performance), the dangerously undependable Pablo (Akim Tamiroff) and the lovely, innocent Maria (Ingrid Bergman). As danger mounts, Robert and Maria develop a closeness, an interdependence, that blossoms into one of the screen s greatest love stories. Their passion grows as they approach the hour of judgment a climactic confrontation neither may survive. (Fabulous Films)
