i can see why this movie won the oscars in 2012. tight direction, almost flawless. aside from planning and being bold, luck was on their side. those hostages were on the wrong side of the revolution, while as ordinary people they are blameless, america and britain had only themselves to blame for unseating a democratically elected prime ministera and leaving a power vacuum only to be filled by the islamists. perhapas that's why director ben affleck put it out there right at the start, to remind the audience of the sins of western governments in iran (or any formerly colonized countries for that matter).
don't fuck with angry people. for context, this is worth watching.
