Nice little thriller. I liked the use of real British and American troops (who would have been stationed in Italy at the time probably without much to do all day). It's a pity it wasn't actually filmed in Tehran though. Interesting that Roosevelt's wheelchair was shown - I thought that was usually kept quiet at the time.
33:20 That 5£ would inflate in 2024 to 245.18, which, converted to Canadian, would be 439.64$ Therefore, 5£ back then would have been closer to saying 500 bucks today. "Hey! Where's my 5 100-dalla bills!!?"
My grandfather was a cartographer and he showed us photos from his trip to Iran in the 70s when the Shah was still in power. It's unbelievable how different it is today.
One could say look at Iraq then free prosperous. And look at it now littered with take contaminated by radiation from the US led gulf war. Still looking for them WMD😂😂
@ FREE,!!! Are you actually serious!!! Saddam was murdering tens of thousands of people every year. He was routinely using chemical weapons on people. He started wars all the time Etc etc etc. You also don’t know what the term depleted uranium means do you.
AGAIN GLAD TO SEE YOU BACK WITH THESE GREAT MOVIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!! I appreciate it
Enjoyed this. The poor native girl, Haali, who helped the hero ... they're always the ones who get killed.

@@CoachBsWife2 The shah repressed muslims and when carter decided not to support him militarily he fled.
The US is similar... ruled by theocrats and oligarchs.
