Review of A Hologram for the King (2016) by Dane M — 19 Nov 2018
I quite liked this film and am surprised I did. Yet another straight (I'm gay) love story. But the actress, Sarita Choudhury and the actor Omar Elba make it delicious. They add warmth and humor to their roles along with the - at last - less-is-more Hanks. His role is to let the locals lead him.
And so he does and it's delightful until you turn off your t.v and come crashing back to earth remembering how journalist Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by the Saudis. Turkey's Minister of National Defense has now said that the dismembered body parts of the slain journalist may have been carried out of Istanbul's international airport.
