Michael Palin - Hemingway Adventure [1999 PAL DVD-DL][En Subs[En]
The following review is based on watching the DVD version of
Michael Palin\'s \"Hemingway Adventure\", subtitled \"On the trail
of an American legend\". This version consists of a single DVD-DL
disc with four programs totaling approx. 3 hours 15 minutes.
There is no extra material, but English subtitles can be
turned on or off. I\'ll hope you\'ll enjoy.
This \"Hemingway Adventure\" is a set of TV programs originally
made for the BBC in 1999. Michael Palin visits many of the
places where Ernest Hemingway lived and traveled, displaying
a keen interest in Hemingway, mostly as a person rather than
Hemingway\'s authorship.
