The post Ali Hatami – Toughi AKA The Ring-necked Dove (1970) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Hajji Hossein-Gholi Noori (Haji Baba) goes to Washington D.C. as the first Iranian (Persian) ambassador to the United States of America. After he opens the embassy, he is unable to invite statesmen to visit him. Haji fires the embassy staff due to the inability of the Persian government to meet the embassy’s needs. One night he is visited by President Grover Cleveland.

Despite Washington’s enthusiasm for the task of ambassador, he is constantly thwarted by lack of funding from the regime, the problems of establishing connections, and some general confusion between the Iranian and the Ottoman embassy. Problems really arise, however, when he gives political asylum to a Native American.

This film delightfully captures the spirit of the times with wonderful performances by Ezzatolah Entezami, as Haji, and Richard Harrison, as president. Largely shot in Italy, the film, although made in 1982, was not screened in Iran until 1998 after the Reformists came to power.
