Screenwriter Chris Terrio on Argo

I found a very interesting interview with Chris Terrio, the writer of the critically acclaimed 2012 thriller Argo.  I was amused to hear he shared similar views on working. He says he would rather get paid to deliver Christmas baskets and explain that 'this is not my real job' than write or direct bad films or TV and have to admit 'this is my real job'. I much prefer to feel humiliated telling people I work as a night porter in a hospital but write and direct when I can, than admit to regularly directing East Enders.
