#BeyondTheLimit ( #TheHonoraryConsul ): Half-Brit doc a reluctant participant in political uprising in unstable region of Argentina. He also falls for young wife of alcoholic Brit consul.

This film is a slog and Richard Gere makes it worse. Solid ending too little too late.

Speaking to my international friends these days I realize how hard it is to understand Slavic wars & nationalism.
Not that I claim to understand them 100%, but pls imagine a combo of MadMax, Underground, TheHonoraryConsul, PlanetOfTheApes.

Several great scenes, but not a page-turner #amreading #goodreads

#thehonoraryconsul is awesome. Funny, dark and gripping. BBC Radio 4

Have been reading/watching some mediocre crap lately ... nice to return to #GrahamGreene as a mental palate-cleanser. 'TheHonoraryConsul'

Interessant teologi hos Graham Greene: Guds nattside. Gud er ansvarlig for det gode og det onde, og bærer den samme dualismen som vi gjør. Til slutt vil dagsiden vinne.

Også en måte å komme til rette med den umulige motsetningen i et trad gudsbilde. #TheHonoraryConsul
