02/17/2016 A must see for historians and those who appreciate the nation of Spain, but otherwise a loose collection of insights into weekend warriors who must fight for several weeks at a time. See more 07/25/2013 Its technique is that of the film document, but Hemingway's narrative makes it a definitely propagandist effort. See more 01/24/2013 Very short (only 53 minutes) documentary, narrated by Ernest Hemingway, on the Spanish Civil War during the 1930's. Mainly, this small collection of footage shows the battle scenes and people suffering through the events of this violent conflict. It just doesn't however have the same greatness as other documentaries (such as "The Sorrow and the Pity"). In fact, Hemingway's narration becomes annoying after a few minutes. Interviews with people who were directly affected by the conflict would have improved the film significantly, by both quality and age. I give it credit however for the battle scene footage.
