Col Needham's Best Movies of 20125 of 10
#6 Argo
I continue to be a fan of Ben Affleck's work as a director with both of his previous features making my Top 10 in their respective years. The particular skill here is crafting a tense atmosphere despite already knowing the end of the story.
I first saw this at The Toronto International Film Festival in September at a public screening with many locals, which added to the enjoyment with clapping and cheering at appropriate moments for the Canadian contribution!
