"Argo F**k Yourself"

We went to see Ben Affleck's highly suspenseful feature "Argo" yesterday. The director/star's film is the most successful exercise in audience control in years. Based on a real story nick named the Canadian Caper, I kept trying to reassure myself that all would be well in the end. It didn't work. John Goodman and Alan Arkin reinforce the stereotype that all us movie people are wise cracking, jaded jokesters.
