But there's a little-known footnote to the crisis: six Americans escaped. And a midlevel agent named Antonio Mendez devised an ingenious yet incredibly risky plan to rescue them. Armed with foreign film visas, Mendez and an unlikely team of CIA agents and Hollywood insiders traveled to Tehran under the guise of scouting locations for a fake film called Argo. While pretending to find the perfect scenery and backdrops, the team succeeded in contacting the escapees and smuggling them out of Iran without a single shot being fired.Canadian Home Video Rating: 14A.Blu-ray disc (requires Blu-ray player for playback); widescreen (2.40:1) presentation; DTS HD 5.1 surround.DVD, widescreen presentation ; Dolby digital.- Subjects: Mendez, Antonio J.; United States.
