Ernest Hemingway’s Life Depicted In PAPA: HEMINGWAY IN CUBA

Ernest Hemingway was one of the most important writers of the 20th Century. His brief writing style in his novels “A Farewell to Arms,” “The Sun Also Rises,” and “The Old Man and the Sea” changed literature forever.

Join Ernest Hemingway in Cuba with the new poster and trailer from Yari Film Group’s PAPA: HEMINGWAY IN CUBA.

Starring Giovanni Ribisi, Adrian Sparks, Joely Richardson and Minka Kelly, the upcoming drama opens in theaters April 29.

Directed by the Producer of the Academy Awarding Winner “Crash” and “The Illusionist”, “PAPA: Hemingway In Cuba” is a true story about the relationship between Miami journalist Denne Bart Petitclerc (Giovanni Ribisi) and legendary writer Ernest Hemingway (Adrian Sparks).

Set during the Cuban revolution, the film co-stars Joely Richardson and Minka Kelly with a cameo by Hemingway’s granddaughter, Mariel Hemingway. “PAPA: Hemingway In Cuba” was shot on location in Havana and inside Hemingway’s estate, Finca Vigia.

It is the first Hollywood film to be shot in Cuba since 1959.

Recovering from various old injuries in Cuba, Hemingway suffered from depression and was treated for numerous conditions such as high blood pressure and liver disease.

He wrote A Moveable Feast, a memoir of his years in Paris, and retired permanently to Idaho. There he continued to battle with deteriorating mental and physical health.

Early on the morning of July 2, 1961, Ernest Hemingway committed suicide in his Ketchum home. (Biography.com)
