“Argo” Was More Thrilling Than the Real Life Events It Was Based On
“Argo” was a political thriller in need of something thrilling, so the writers made the whole suspenseful airport scene far more suspenseful than it really was. In reality, every passenger made it to the plane safely. The film also gave the United States credit for the rescue mission, but in reality, it was Canadian ambassador Ken Taylor who deserved all the credit.
