Hemingway and Gellhorn
Clive Owen plays Hemingway, who meets a young writer, Martha (Nicole Kidman), in a bar in Key West during the 30’s. Years later, the two of them meet again, this time in Spain, as they both cover the Spanish Civil War. While they write about and experience firsthand the horrors of war, they also fall in love. They get married; but Hemingway’s fickle personality and Gellhorn’s success turn out to be a not-so-good combination.
