The movie Argo has causes uproar from Iran. The production is based on the on the rescue of the U.S. diplomats who were taken in the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis. The movie was directed by Ben Affleck, who also stared in the movie. Ben Affleck was given a Golden Globe as a director. The movie was also given the prize of “best drama movie.” Iran first was going to make a movie response to Argo. Instead, they are now choosing to sue Hollywood and the filmmakers who helped with the film. They also plan to fund a movie called “The General Staff.” The movie will be about 20 hostages from America. Press Tv has stated, “"The Iranophobic American movie attempts to describe Iranians as overemotional, irrational, insane, and diabolical while at the same, the CIA agents are represented as heroically patriotic."

I saw this movie recently and thought it was great. however it is a movie, and altough it is based on a true event a lot of what actually happened in this movie are not 100% accurate. Also this isnt the first time America has made a movie makeing one country look like the bad guy. Look at all of the holacaust movies and war movies hollywood has made. The big question is what can they actually sue hollywood for?
