Title: Highly Over-rated Portrait
Product review: I have not been able to decide whether I like Lillian Ross or not. There is a strangely ambiguous atomosphere in this Portrait. It is impossible for me to tell if Ross is making fun of a sad, senile old alcoholic or if she is seriously hero-worshipping. Hemingway comes off very badly in any case. He keeps repeating the phrase, "How do you like it now, gentlemen?" and seems generally pretty unaware of his surroundings. I cant get past the feeling that Ross is exploiting H. for her own personal gain, but I suppose H. was not above doing the same to others himself in his younger days, so perhaps these things all even out.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
