Nothing secret in buildup for Affleck spy flick 'Argo'

The 71-year-old retired CIA agent is the man who managed to sneak six U.S. diplomats out of Iran during the 1979-81 hostage crisis by having them pose as the fake crew of a fake movie. Mendez is played by Affleck in ?Argo,? the rapturously reviewed new movie about the long-classified operation.
