The Last King of Scotland

Today I saw The Last King of Scotland, starring Academy Award nominee Forest Whitaker.

MichaelVox and me review it on episode 21 of Cinebanter, which is available here.

  1. Hi there ..a pre-emptive comment here..looking forward to hearing you and Michael on "Last King..."
    Really enjoyed it this afternoon
    (dayoff work..snowy weather)
    Overall , i just marvelled at the idea of placing a fictional character in proximity to "real"/ anecdotal events, thus enabling the creation of a blistering Drama!
    Mention Amin to most Americans and they will probably (as a friend of mine did)say ,"Raid on Entebbe" , and , of course , that is where this "ends"..the fictional character "escapes", and it's the beginning of the end for Idi Amin.
    Cheers Chris Morrell
