Argo is a good film. 

It is based on a true story, the main character is a "Q" in real life. He got the Intelligent star, the second highest honor for a CIA operative. He couldn't hold on to it, or have a ceremony because it is top secret. He got it after President Clinton declassified the Argo file in 1997.

He is a good guy. He take risk but he get the job done.

Now, the film.

Good acting. Ben Affleck is at his top game in this. He played it cool. He acted a lot without a lot of dialogue. 

The whole is well done, Highly recommended. 

As for the book, it gets me interested in who this Tony Mendez is, so I looked it up and found this book, written by him.

Nice. Real nice.
