How True Is a True Story?: Argo (2012)

The Confluence Cultural Centre's film series digs into how movies based on real events measure up to history. Before the screening of Argo—Ben Affleck's Oscar-winning thriller about the CIA's daring rescue of six Americans during the 1979 Iran hostage crisis—a 15-minute presentation unpacks what actually happened versus Hollywood embellishment. Tickets include popcorn and after-hours admission to the cultural centre. Snacks and drinks available for purchase. Advance registration required (paid) via Showpass by Nov. 18.
