Argo

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

During the Iranian Hostage Crisis 6 Americans escaped before they could be taken captive with the others. The Canadians and Ben Affleck attempt to get them out of Iran.

Despite a lot of historical inaccuracies, it was a good film.

I haven't seen it but I like to envision that it was actually Ben Affleck who saved those guys.

Aflek's range of emotion was amazing. The entire movie he was being calm, and then for 30 seconds he was frustrated and raised his voice, and then he was back to completely calm again.

I noticed that, too. It's like Ben was in a coma the whole movie.

Still good, though. Despite the extensive inaccuracies.
