Representation in Other Media
- Edward Herrmann portrayed Eastman in the film Reds (1981), starring Warren Beatty, which was based on the life of John Reed. Eastman's biographer, John Patrick Diggins, noted that it was ironic that Herrmann was cast as Eastman, who was known for his good looks, while the handsome Beatty portrayed Reed, who had a bookish appearance.
- He was also portrayed in the 2012 TV movie Hemingway & Gellhorn by actor Mark Pellegrino, directed by Philip Kaufman.

Famous quotes containing the words representation in and/or media:
“People accept a representation in which the elements of wish and fantasy are purposely included but which nevertheless proclaims to represent “the past” and to serve as a guide-rule for life, thereby hopelessly confusing the spheres of knowledge and will.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“The media network has its idols, but its principal idol is its own style which generates an aura of winning and leaves the rest in darkness. It recognises neither pity nor pitilessness.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
