Hi!
I'm searching everywhere for the title of this movie and hoping someone here will know. Please help.

It must've been from the 80s, it was about two young men, one a US military ivy leage school student (played by someone who looks a lot kinda like an Adam Scott), who visits his friend who's working at the US consolate or embassy. The embassey worker character is maybe 20 yrs old and has a huge amount of responsibility and a huge office.

Has a picnic scene with other youths where the US military student crushes ants with a rock.

Same character was continually asking other male characters if they shaved with the grain of their beard, or against it.

Deals loosely with the juxtaposition of politics and youth.

It's a haughty, ambitious and pompous kinda movie.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
