Hemingway (2021)
8/10
Informative and balanced
7 March 2023
A, probably, too comprehensive, documentary on the man, myth, legend. I think it effectively demystifies him and charts an entire life quite well. I can't say all of it was interesting, as a casual enjoyer of his works, not particularly finding his works incredible, but it's interesting to see the literary world at the time and how his life informed his work.

Like most series like this, I think your initial interest in the subject will help inform if you'll like the program. It doesn't mean you won't be interested, because he is an interesting, complicated person. Actually, the most interesting aspect was his queerness being examined somewhat, and how unfortunate it was that the understanding of queerness was so antiquated.
