Uganda!

The Last King Of Scotland - 73 (Kevin MacDonald)

This was a lot better than I thought it would be. Forest Whitaker is good of course, but the best thing about this movie is Anthony Dod Mantle. I had forgotten that the Entebbe incident happened in Uganda.

Problems with the movie: The stupid title cards at the end, which I hate in almost every movie that they are in. Not only are they unnecessary and patronizing here, but they are incorrect. They state that all but one of the Israeli hostages was rescued. Actually, it was four: one was killed by the Israeli commandos, two were killed by Ugandan soldiers, and one (an old lady, who was taken to the hospital before the rescue) was killed under orders from Amin after the rest of the hostages were saved.

I am trying to find a place where I can rent General Idi Amin Dada, a movie that I have wanted to see for quite some time, but have failed so far.
