I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Sadly most of what has happened, & continues to happen in many countries, in the world today has been caused by the US/CIA. Hopefully this documentary will set the record straight > partially.I saw the movie, referred to by you mote99, > made by the luvvies of Hollywood, (that financially support ALL US governments), & was annoyed by the inaccuracies.Thanks for your review & words mote99 > 'Forget about Ben Affleck's silly fairy tale, "Argo". ' ......Very true words indeed.- Shame the rest of the story/truth will NEVER 'come out'...LBB
Forget about Ben Affleck's silly fairy tale, "Argo." If you want to learn the real story behind the Iran hostage crisis and the rescue of six American hostages, this is the documentary to watch. "Our Man in Tehran" gives you the whole story, minus the fictional elements that Mr. Affleck and company added to their mediocre caper flick. It's all here in this documentary: the historical context, the real players, the Canadian reconnaissance, and the subplot where the CIA almost screwed everything up with wrong dates on the passports.If you prefer reality to fiction, skip "Argo" and watch "Our Man in Tehran." The real story is actually much more interesting than Hollywood's version.
