Her devotion to him makes him finally realize that he is not a failure. With his realization of a chance for love and happiness with Helen, he regains his will to live.

Movie Reviews

Movie Metropolis - 8/10 by James PlathPlays better on the page than on stage or screen, but Peck and Gardner give it their all.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonThanks to a skillful combination of some sensational African hunting scenes, a musical score of rich suggestion and a vivid performance by Gregory Peck, Twentieth Century-Fox and Darryl F. Zanuck have concocted a handsome and generally absorbing film in The Snows of Kilimanjaro.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzThe star-studded cast makes the flawed film watchable.
Chicago Reader - 5/10 by Dave KehrThere is some exquisite Technicolor photography by Leon Shamroy, but director Henry King never moves the action beyond respectful superficiality.
User Review - 10/10 by Allan CA blockbuster with magnificent performances.
User Review - 10/10 by Kevin CGreat classic movie, fantastic actors and of course Ava Gardner is very beautiful
User Review - 10/10 by Veeruska Kgorgeous gregory!!! <3 one of my favorite movies, beautiful imagery. love all the symbolism in it.
User Review - 10/10 by Private Uyou will like all the action and adventure here.
User Review - 8/10 by Mara BGreat characters and exotic locales make this classic Hemingway. Pretty good digital restoration in full color, although mostly shot in the studio. Nevertheless a good production for its time.
User Review - 8/10 by Richard SWith great stars like Ava Gardner, Gregory Peck and Susan Hayward, a screenplay based on the works of Ernest Hemingway and a story set in Africa, France and Spain, one would expect much more from this film but unfortunately it falls short. However it's worth seeing for the impressive performances by Gardner and Hayward.
