Hemingway, August 11, 2006
Ever since watching this Hemingway drama on TV in the 1980s I have been desperate to watch it again - it was never repeated on TV. I was delighted to see that I could purchase the DVD through Amazon. I have a multiregion DVD and I had absolutely no problem with the DVD - the quality is excellent.
Thanks for allowing me to enjoy the wonderful drama again.

Warning! Both discs are the same!, August 19, 2005
I bought this DVD and returned it twice! Both discs are the same. Both are parts 1 and 2 of the series. While the labels on the discs are correct, disc 2 is not part 3 and extra features. It is parts 1 and 2 repeated again!

"Stacy Keach as Hemingway (1988) ... Koch Vision (5/10/2005)", October 26, 2006
Koch Vision present - "Hemingway" (1988) (300 mins/Color) (Dolby Digital) --- Stacy Keach has the lead role of Hemingway and was filmed on-location in Paris, Venice, Pamplona, The Alps, Africa, the U.S. and The Caribbean - places where Hemingway lived, worked, loved and produced some of the most influential and enduring fiction of the 20th Century --- a Golden Globe Award Winner, traces the life and times of Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winning author Ernest Hemingway ... legendary writer, adventurer, sportsman and war correspondent --- he was adored by women and embraced life to the fullest --- but suffered lengthily bouts of depression which led to taking his life.
Under Bernhard Sinkel (Director) Linda Marmelstein (producer), Daniel Wilson (producer), Bernhard Sinkel (Screenwriter), Wolfgang Treu (Cinematographer), John Carter (Editor) ----- the cast includes Stacy Keach (Ernest Hemingway), Josephine Chaplin (Hadley Richardson), Marisa Berenson (Pauline Pfeiffer), Lisa Banes (Martha Gelhorn), Pamela Reed (Mary Walsh), Scott Weinger ( Jack Hemingway) . . . . . outstanding cast with Stacy Keach leading the way and a great supporting cast following his lead ... well scripted as director and screenwriters bring the '40s into perspective ... the flow of each scene is timed and played out well ... there is a sense of energy that Keach captures and the film succeeds with all their winning ways ... this my friendly viewers is not one to be missed.

Great job by Koch Vision for releasing "Hemingway" (1988) - Stacy Keach, the digital transfere with a clean, clear and crisp print ... looking forward to more high quality releases from the foreign film market --- order your copy now from Amazon or Koch Vision where there are plenty of copies available on DVD, stay tuned once again for top notch drama mixed with an outstanding cast and director --- gotta love it!
