Notes: 
Commendably directed, costume-fitted, scored, and written. Standing ovation for Ben Affleck as director and Alan Arkin for his performance. This film is actually overrated, but admittedly among the best of 2012.

After watching this film:
You'll find time to use the phrase "Argo fuck yourself".

For your consideration:
  • Acting: Alan Arkin as Lester Siegel
  • Directing
  • Musical Score
  • Costume Design
  • Adapted Screenplay
  • Editing
  • Sound
  • Ensemble
  • Film of the Year
  • Cinematography
