Did you see or know anything factual about “Argo”? I’m debating seeing it.

“Argo” is everything a film should be.

my impression is that many if not most, including Affleck, are surprised it made recognition.

It’s great even with its bending over backwards to put that awful Jimmy Carter in a good light, and, while mentioning the other hostages, not mentioning anything about the terrible fiasco it was getting them out.

Am sure Affleck is to some degree horrified to see the contrast of responsibility toward the embassy staff, as it should be with our SOS’s what difference does it make attitude.

Unintended, loooking at the timing

That’s my review.

Ratings:

The theme is for all seasoned current events watchers and is a breath of fresh air in its atttempt at honesty- of people handling strees and doing their jobs. I know a 15 yo who loved it. Some tough language and nasty terrorrism scenes. No sex, family in good light. Skimpy clothing with the Hollywood scenes.

Don’t miss this on the big screen.

Let me know.
