This biographical film is inspired by the
true story of the friendship that was born between young journalist Denne Bart
Petitclerc and his idol Ernest Hemingway, while the author was living in
Havana, Cuba.
This movie was demolished in reviews, but,
honestly, I liked it very much. Giovanni Ribisi is quite good in the role of Ed
Myers, which is the film representation of Petitclerc. Adrian Sparks is also
solid as Hemingway. The story and the acting went a little bit overboard with
the melodrama at times, but I found the story very touching. I could relate to
the idea of getting to spend time with an idol like that, even if it’s going to
put you in a dangerous position.
Overall, this was an entertaining film in my
book.
