Brand new factory sealed dvd.
Affleck's skillful retelling of a recently declassified aspect of the Iranian hostage crisis offers impressive attention to detail, but never loses sight of the emotional journey of the characters involved.
The film details the invention of a faux Hollywood production in order to spirit six Americans from Iran during the crisis. Affleck stars as the man with the daring plan, giving a remarkably strong yet reserved performance that allows Bryan Cranston, Alan Arkin, and John Goodman to shine. Producing tension in a story for which most viewers know the ending, Affleck proves his directorial effort is no fluke.
