5.0 out of 5 stars real hemingway., October 26, 2003

By	L. Franzten "Earthling" (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Ernest Hemingway - Wrestling With Life [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video is a masterpiece. I love Hemingway and here the man is captured in all his in your face-tortured-life loving-woman loving glory. The language in this video is hardly disturbing which makes me think the person who wrote a review for this video claiming it was full of curse words did not actually see it. If anything this video will instill in the viewer a need to read more about the man and his work. A rare video. I've seen it a half dozen times and it never loses it hold on me. For any Hemingway fan this is a must.

4.0 out of 5 stars Biography: Ernest Hemingway - Wrestling with Life (DVD), August 1, 2005

By	R. J. MacDonnell - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A worthwhile and well constructed precise of Hemingway's life, most valuable for its insights from Hemingway's sons and archival moving film footage, including some sound bites of Hemingway speaking. The video relies (necessarily) on a fair amount of still photography, much of which will be familar to Hemingway aficionados, nevertheless, the presentation is compelling.

5.0 out of 5 stars for educational purposes, March 31, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Ernest Hemingway - Wrestling With Life [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The review belows states that this video is full of cuss words. Unless you're a nun, I don't see why you didn't show 14 year old students this video. I think they can handle words like ''damn'' and ''hell''.
This video is great. It captures the spirit of Hemmingway perfectly; a boy trying to find his masculinity. Perfect for teenage boys, to help them avoid mistakes Hemmingway may have made and realize who they are.
