Movie Review: A Must For Hemingway Admirers
Summary: 5 Stars
Produced in 1998 for A&E's "Biography" series, "Ernest Hemingway: Wrestling With Life" is simply the best documentary ever produced on the Nobel and Pulitzer Prize-winning author. This 90-minute documentary is narrated by Hemingway's grand daughter, actress Mariel Hemingway, and features insightful comments from Ernest's sons Jack and Gregory. "Papa Hemingway" author A.E. Hotchner and publisher Charles Scribner III also provide illuminating commentary. The documentary takes us from Hemingway's childhood in Oak Park, Illinois to his final, tragic days in Ketchum, Idaho, detailing the triumphs and tragedies of the legendary author's life. "Papa" is not always presented in a flattering light, as Hemingway's infidelities, personality flaws, and struggles with alcohol and depression are all discussed unflinchingly. Actor Scott Glenn reads from Hemingway's works and letters, and most surprising for a documentary of this nature is composer Frank Becker's memorable and evocative music score for this fine production.
"Ernest Hemingway: Wrestling With Life" is a triumph and a must-see for those who love this author's work; his life was just as fascinating.
