I love the way Hemingway is lampooned in the movie "Midnight in Paris." Corey Stoll plays him and the dialog sounds just like his writing. Zelda Fitzgerald (F. Scott's wife) hated Hemingway and called him "a fairy with a hairy chest." Interestingly, his granddaughter Margaux Hemingway also died by suicide.
