Go See: Argo
I must say that I finally feel ahead of the game. I've seen more movies in the past two weeks that I feel refreshed and like a living human being again. Director and Actor Ben Affleck is at it again with making an incredibly powerful and emotional film, "Argo". You do recall when he directed "The Town" and "Gone Baby Gone" which garnered a few Oscar nominations, right? Is it curious that his wife Jennifer Garner isn't in any of his films? Hmmmm....just kidding. That's how rumours get started.
With an amazing cast, there's no way that this wouldn't be a hit. Plus, if you live and work in LA in the film biz, you will understand so many of the insider jokes between Ben Affleck's character and his two film cronies (in the film) played by Alan Arkin and John Goodman. I'd like to make two comments - one is if you're an Alan Arkin fan, you must see the psychological thriller, "Wait Until Dark" that he's in with Audrey Hepburn. And second - John Goodman - is just GOOD! I just saw him in the Denzel Washington flick, "Flight" and he was amazeballs, but I'll get to that soon. I digress, I love films that are based on real, historical events as it gets my interested peaked, in well, history.
What also piqued my interest were the lot of actors who played the fugitive American diplomats who needed Ben Affleck's character to help them escape Iran. The six were played by Clea Duvall (we know who she is), Tate Donovan ("The O.C."), Scoot McNairy, Rory Cochran, Christopher Denham and Kerry Bishe. All of whom have at least twenty imdb credits, so excuse me!?! This was a very well cast film with Bryan Cranston as "Jack O'Donnell", Victor Garber who plays the Canadian Consulate, Chris Messina ("Vicki Cristina Barcelona" and "The Giant Mechanical Man") and "Friday Night Light's Kyle Chandler. Whew, doesn't get any better than that. It's really well done and I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't a few nominations that arise from this flick.
