Best Movie of the Year (So Far)

ARGO was incredible on so many levels. Generally when I see a great movie, I endeavor to find a flaw. I couldn't. Suspenseful times a thousand, entertaining, perfect. John Goodman, Alan Arkin, Ben Affleck, Bryan Cranston and some of the most brilliant storytelling I've seen in quite some time. In fact, I wanted to go back and watch it again.

By the way, one of the great injustices of the 1980s was that Reagan got credit for the release of the Iranian hostages. He had nothing to do with it. Thanks to Affleck for a very, very poignant epilogue featuring President Carter.
