Argo is Best Picture Quality!


For those unlucky souls who haven't watched Argo, need to as soon as possible. I am so glad I was able to catch this in the theaters because it was simply a masterpiece. If I would've paid $20+ for this movie, I wouldn't complain. I wouldn't even mind writing a film analysis on it. This film has everything. Action, comedy, and definitely suspense.  It has a great story and being based on a true story makes it all that better and incredible. I think that Ben Affleck did an amazing job in this film as a director and an actor. I don't know what the Academy was thinking because he isn't nominated for either category. At least he won at the Golden Globes.

But this post is about Academy Award nominee for Best Supporting Actor: Alan Arkin. (Pictured above) Arkin played Lester Siegel in Argo. Lester Siegel was a fake producer for the fake film Argo. Arkin was pretty much the comedy of the movie and I thought it worked well. His comedy gave us a bit of relief from all the craziness. But it's the way he delivers his lines that doesn't disappoint me because I don't think anyone else can pull those one-liners like he did. Now I can make a prediction if he will win because i haven't seen the other films but I think he can really win.

  2. The movie seems very interesting. Just by you talking about it, it is making me want to see this movie. Spencer is right though. You should do a film analysis on it.
