Its tagline promises Gregory Peck making "that Hemingway kind of love" to Joan Bennett, pointing straight to the film's literary source. *The Macomber Affair*, released by United Artists around 1947 and directed by Zoltan Korda, adapts Ernest Hemingway's 1936 short story "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber," about a wealthy American couple whose African safari exposes strains in their marriage. Peck plays the white hunter drawn into the wife's orbit, while Robert Preston plays her husband. The color silkscreen leans on that mix of romance and adventure, a common selling angle for the period.
