Canadian film!

"Escape from Tehran" was supposed to be a Canadian film. It originated from the real incident in which the CIA rescued the trapped American hostages in Iran and returned home safely. The rhythm of the whole film is stretched, and the retro shooting technique is combined with the interspersion of real historical shots to enhance the sense of authenticity of the story; multi-line simultaneous presentation and frequent editing make the story more suspenseful and urgency, without most real events in the film adaptation The slow pace, the look and feel is great! More importantly, it has hacked Iran, and it has also hacked the United States! 8 points! ps: Ben Affleck's control as a director is much better than his facial paralyzed face as an actor!

    Tony Mendez: It's a space movie in the Middle East. Does it matter?

  • [shooting down ideas to exfiltrate the house guests]

    Tony Mendez: Sir, if these people can read or add, pretty soon they're gonna figure out they're six short of a full deck. It's winter. You can't afford to wait around till spring so it's nice enough to take a bike ride. The only way out of that city is the airport. We build new cover identities for them, you send in a Moses, he takes them out on a commercial flight.
