Notes on the Other

About This Movie

Notes on the Other is a peculiar documentary that dives into a strangely poignant moment in Hemingway's life. The film captures the atmosphere of 1920s Spain, and you can really feel the weight of Hemingway's thoughts as he likens himself to a wounded bullfighter. It’s not just about the event itself, but more about that haunting self-identification he felt. The pacing is contemplative, allowing viewers to sit with the emotional undercurrents rather than rushing through them. The practical effects of recreating that balcony scene, combined with the grainy film quality, lend an authenticity that feels almost tactile. It’s a unique exploration of identity and mortality that lingers long after the credits roll.
