This color footage shows Ernest Hemingway in the summer of 1944 at Mont-Saint-Michel, shortly after the Allied breakthrough in Normandy. Hemingway was accredited at that time as a war correspondent for Collier’s Weekly and accompanied Allied forces in the Normandy hinterland. Jack Lieb encountered him during this phase of the advance, which in the film connects the section between the Normandy landing and the liberation of Paris. The photograph is a rare color document of one of the most renowned war correspondents of the Second World War.
