The Ernest Hemingway Documentary on PBS

Don'tknow if I can get it! OMG! Hemingway was my HERO!
Gaer,
pbs.org/kenburns/hemingway it is streaming there. It is six one hour episodes and one final more than one hour. Brilliantly done. I could watch all of them over right now. They may repeat all episodes this weekend
 
I have never understood why Hemingway is regarded as a great writer. His work bores me totally. I hate the style
and it is out of style nowadays. Why Hemingway? Why not Mark Twain, Fitzgerald or? Steinbeck is another one who I think is overrated. He is good for ESL students and beginning readers. Someone tell us why Hemingway is great and why he deserves a documentary?
