"Argo"

If you only see one movie this year, let it be "Argo."  Of course there are plenty of good movies out, we've heard sterling things about "Lincoln" and of course we're looking forward to "Les Mis" and "The Hobbit."

But everyone should see "Argo."  Even if you know the story and how it ends, it's one that runs the gamut of emotions.  I cried the first 15 minutes.  Parts made me laugh.  The ending was tense and anxiety-ridden. The storytelling and acting were spot on.  And it's a story that we wish would never be repeated.

Our family has never been evacuated from post and this makes us almost a minority in the Foreign Service.  Honestly, it's how I'd like to remain.
