Review of Beirut (2018) by Everett — 24 Apr 2018
The writing here is extraordinary, with never a lag and brilliant twists I didn't see coming, as well as the avoidance of what we've come to expect in movies where they "bring in the skirt." And the script is perfectly served by first-rate acting by Jon Hamm; I can't imagine anyone else in this role.
He brings a depth of layers to this character, with a sense of himself that's almost startling. This movie deserves far more attention than it seems to be getting.
