MADRID, Jun 27, 2006 (UPI via COMTEX) -- Spanish television previewed a formerly unseen documentary about its civil war made by the famed U.S. author Ernest Hemingway.
The film, "Tierra de Espana" ("Spanish Earth"), contains footage of the civil war, which Hemingway covered as a war correspondent, the Times of London reported Tuesday.
In it, Hemingway narrates the film which recalls the fighting between the rebel army of General Francisco Franco and the republican government troops near Madrid in 1937.
The film had never been shown in Spain, which is commemorating the 70th anniversary of the conflicts beginning starting next month.
