- Title
The Spanish Earth and the Non-Nonfiction War Film.
- Authors
Vernon, Alex; Cros, Almudena; Davis, Peter
- Abstract
Based on field research conducted in Spain in June 2013, this article investigates some of the historical context for The Spanish Earth. The first section explores the film-related locations of Madrid, Morata de Tajuña, and Fuentidueña de Tajo through site visits and local interviews. The gathered information both expands and corrects what the author presented in Hemingway's Second War (2011). The second section provides commentary. The article aims to better equip others in drawing more informed conclusions in situating The Spanish Earth within nonfiction theory, the documentary and war film tradition, and Hemingway's experience of and writings about the war.
