Oscar’s Best Picture is a rattling ride set in the Me Decade and channeling the paranoid thrillers of the 1970s. Based on a (once) little-known true story of six American embassy employees in Iran who avoided capture when the rest of the staff was taken hostage. The rescue is stage managed by a creative CIA agent with Hollywood connections.

“Spellbinding and surprisingly funny . . . the craft in this film is rare” (Roger Ebert).
