'The Tourist' travels to Ireland in its second season. The action of the new chapters also includes certain features of Greek tragedy and nineteenth-century melodrama but flows with a certain logic.
A minimal Ireland with scattered houses and farms shows more violence than one might imagine in those places. Of course, then events like those in Puerto Hurraco, in Badajoz, are remembered, and the village praise inevitably collapses. The excellent series created by Harry and Jack Williams, shown on HBO Max, transcends the two essential components, violence and beer.
