What critics compared A Farewell to Arms to
We get a glimmer of the error of the newfound optimism of the protagonist of Silver Linings Playbook when he throws a hardcover copy of Ernest Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms through the closed window of his bedroom in his parents' attic.
This leads, however, to Pat flinging a copy of “A Farewell to Arms” through a closed window at 4 o’clock in the morning, and awakening his parents with a maniacal rant against Ernest Hemingway.
In one hilarious scene early on in the film, an enraged Pat bursts in to his parents’ bedroom and rails against Ernest Hemingway’s heartbreaking ending in “A Farewell To Arms”.
