Based on real events, the dramatic thriIIer Argo chronicles the Iife-or-death covert operation to rescue six Americans, which unfoIded behind the scenes of the lran hostage crisis, focusing on the littIe-known roIe that the ClA and HolIywood played-information that was not declassified untiI many years after the event. On November 4, 1979, as the Iranian revoIution reaches its boiling point, miIitants storm the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, taking 52 Americans hostage. But, in the midst of the chaos, six Americans manage to slip away and find refuge in the home of Canadian Ambassador Ken Taylor. Knowing it is only a matter of time before the six are found out and Iikely kilIed, the Canadian and American governments ask the CIA to intervene. The ClA turns to their top "exfiItration" speciaIist, Tony Mendez, to come up with a pIan to get the six Americans safeIy out of the country. A plan so incredibIe, it couId onIy happen in the movies. |
