Years before The lord of the rings catapulted him to international superstardom, Viggo Mortensen played Wes, a young husband locked in co-dependent discontent with his beautiful and needy wife. Combining the theatrical surrealism of Beckett and Ionesco, the playfulness of Richard Lester, and the scathing social critique and imagery for which Majewski is renowned, The gospel according to Harry is a wholly original cinematic tour de force.
