About Beyond the Ocean
A big-time businessman throws in the towel on his company and high-tails it out to Bali just as its stock is about to be publicly offered. There, he tries to avoid the insistent phone calls coming from Manhattan and records his philosophical ponderings about this mid-life crisis on videotape. Before long, he is partying with another burnt-out businessman and avidly avoiding the attentions of colleagues who have come to Bali to try and get him to come back to Manhattan.
Directed by Ben Gazzara, Beyond the Ocean leans on a strong ensemble — Ben Gazzara, Rebecca Glenn, Peter Riegert — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1990.
