At the Movies

Argo

No, we haven't been hanging out with Ben Affleck.  Although, I would certainly not say no to that.  Today was cold, really cold, 54 degrees.  So we put on our socks and sweaters and headed for the movies.  We mistakenly thought tonight was the Oscars and wanted to see Argo ahead of the awards.  We always cheer for our hometown boy, Ben.  And this time he truly deserves it.  The movie was fast paced, with just the right amount of tension mixed with humor.  It's about the rescue of 6 Americans who escaped the American Embassy in Iran during the hostage taking of 1979.  Now that we know the Oscars are next week, maybe we will take in The Life of Pi or Les Miserables.
