Description
A poor nation can represent wealth... for the corrupt. Master of intrigue Graham Greene (The Third Man, The Quiet American) ignites romantic and political passions in a gripping screenplay adapted from his own novel, set against the brutal regime of "Papa Doc" Duvalier in Haiti. Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor are just the cherry on top of a long list of stars portraying diplomats, con artists, adulterers, henchmen, indifferent observers, and even a pair of pacifist vegetarians, a colorful mix of characters caught in the web of a tyrannical government. Beginning with the discovery of a dead body at the bottom of a well to a decisive confrontation with Papa Doc's ruthless secret police, The Comedians is a story as unsettling and comforting as the contradictory human heart.
