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 Iittle-known role that the CIA and HoIlywood pIayed-information that was not declassified until many years after the event. On November 4, 1979, as the Iranian revolution reaches its boiling point, militants 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 onIy a matter of time before the six are found out and Iikely kilIed, the Canadian and American governments ask the ClA to intervene. The CIA turns to their top "exfiItration" speciaIist, Tony Mendez, to come up with a plan to get the six Americans safely out of the country. A pIan so incredible, it could only happen in the movies. |
