For whom the camera rolls: Ernest Hemingway biopic set for big screen
You can see how it might make for an eventful film: three wars, four wives, big game hunting, big whisky drinking, a Nobel prize for literature, a Pulitzer prize and a tragic end. Now the life of Ernest Hemingway looks set to be the subject of a new biopic based on the best-selling biography Papa Hemingway: A Personal Memoir, by AE Hotchner, who was one of the writer's best friends during the final 14 years of his life.Hotchner, now 88, wrote the 1962 film Hemingway's Adventures of a Young Man, which was based on the author's stories, many of them autobiographical. 'It is rare that we have such intimate, truthful knowledge about the life and, ultimately, demise of a true American icon,' said the project's producers, The Gotham Group and Kevin Fortuna. Hemingway's final years saw the publication of two of his finest works, A Moveable Feast and The Old Man And The Sea, for which he won the Nobel prize. But it was also the period in which ill health overcame him, in particular injuries su

Photo Flash: LA Premiere Of All The Lives Of Me
HONEST TO GOODNESS says Florence HendersonIt's a story, of a lovely lady ...

Taking up Mickey Spillane`s mantle
Mickey Spillane had unfinished business when he died in 2006. The hard-boiled heavyweight who, in his prime, would dash off thrillers in a matter of days, hadn't finished the final outing of his hot-headed new york detective Mike Hammer. The Goliath Bone, a valedictory case set in the wake of 9/11, lay incomplete. But the 88-year-old Spillane was determined to give his hero the send-off he deserved and, before he died, entrusted the book to mystery writer Max Allan Collins, who has been a Hammer fan since adolescence.So what is it like to finish the novel of a friend who also happens to be the bestselling American crime writer of the last century? When I call the lively, good-humoured Collins at home in Iowa, it sounds like he still can't believe he met his hero, let alone was charged with safeguarding his legacy. It's an honour, a responsibility and a 'kid-in-the-candy-store sensation,' he says. 'Mickey had been creating these half-manuscripts and setting them aside throughout our fri
