This movie's central character prefigured the flawed heroes that would later anchor some of screenwriter Tony Gilroy's best known works. "Mason [Mason Skiles played by Jon Hamm] was the beginning of my fascination with characters in need of redemption, which is also true for Jason Bourne and Michael Clayton," Gilroy said. "With 'Beirut', I was interested in writing about people trapped inside a political situation, while at the same time Mason is forced to confront his past and his own weakness."
