But I have to say I have watched the movie Argo and it's great. I'm not watching a documentary, I'm watching a movie that has (to me) heart stopping scenes, remembering the news from that time helps. I've read all the stories of the things that did not happen, but are in the movie. That's fine with me. It's a movie.
