If a bounded holomorphic function g on the complex upper half-plane has g(iy)→ℓ as y↓0, the rescaled functions g(z/n) form a normal family. Every subsequential limit equals ℓ on the imaginary axis, hence everywhere by the identity theorem for holomorphic functions. The entire sequence converges locally uniformly to ℓ. For a nontangential sequence zj​=xj​+iyj​→0, put nj​=⌊1/yj​⌋; then nj​zj​ remains in a fixed compact subset of the half-plane. This gives g(zj​)→ℓ. The bounded example e−i/z shows that unrestricted boundary convergence can fail.
