 The extent of Hemingway 's influence is seen in the tributes and echoes of his fiction in popular culture . A minor planet , discovered in 1978 by Soviet astronomer Nikolai Chernykh , was named for him ( 3656 Hemingway ) ; Ray Bradbury wrote The Kilimanjaro Device , with Hemingway transported to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro ; the 1993 motion picture Wrestling Ernest Hemingway , about the friendship of two retired men , Irish and Cuban , in a seaside town in Florida , starred Robert Duvall , Richard Harris , Shirley MacLaine , Sandra Bullock , and Piper Laurie . The influence is evident with the many restaurants named " Hemingway " ; and the proliferation of bars called " Harry 's " ( a nod to the bar in Across the River and Into the Trees ) . A line of Hemingway furniture , promoted by Hemingway 's son Jack ( Bumby ) , has pieces such as the " Kilimanjaro " bedside table , and a " Catherine " slip @-@ covered sofa . Montblanc offers a Hemingway fountain pen , and a line of Hemingway safari clothes has been created . The International Imitation Hemingway Competition was created in 1977 to publicly acknowledge his influence and the comically misplaced efforts of lesser authors to imitate his style . Entrants are encouraged to submit one " really good page of really bad Hemingway " and winners are flown to Italy to Harry 's Bar .
