Forest Whitaker's solo show

I've run out of adjectives to describe Forest Whitaker's portrayal of Idi Amin, the dictatorial president who ruled Uganda violently in the 1970s—not just shocking or terrifying. He caused the genocide of 300,000 people, and he himself, haunted Western governments and media like a mystery. His humorous and cold-blooded coexistence, his moody, ruthless personality... Just like Elizabeth II portrayed by Helen Mirren, nominated for this year's Academy Award for "Best Actress", Forest Whitaker's...

who he is defines what he did

The story of dictatorship is so complicated that no one knows where to begin. But there must be a beginning. The best and most ingenious one is to enter from the perspective of an outsider. For example, Grandma Liu in "A Dream of Red Mansions" enters Jia's house, and the Scottish doctor in this film goes to Uganda.

Dictatorship and the horror of military rule are clearly seen in the film. About dictatorship, it's too complicated, I really don't know how to say it, and I don't...

black horror, bloody romance

In recent years, the best actor in the Oscars has not shown goodwill to the traditional Hollywood handsome and cool guy. Whether it is a black brother or a short old man, it can be classified into pure acting. Sometimes I feel that such awards are more out of a balance and compromise, like giving the best picture to the old horse, anyway, I can't see where the performances of the other handsome guys lost to them. Another tendency is that performance awards are increasingly favoring biographical...

Just a movie star

I have seen a lot of Forest Whitaker's plays in the past, and the ones that impressed me the most were the phone booth and a blue dragon that reflected Vietnamese refugees. This is a typical man with introverted acting skills. When Amin appeared on the scene, he just took the actor in line with the call.
The movie is really not worthy of a big book. From the performance point of view, only Forest Whitaker himself has some brilliance. The structure of the entire film is also chaotic, and...

Film Review of "The Last Dictatorship"

When I first saw this movie, I wasn't really interested, and I've watched a lot of dictatorial movies, and it's nothing more than talking about how a monarch's rule is not good, how can he be repressed, etc., but after seeing it, I didn't expect it to be so bad. There is an urge to continue watching, because this film is indeed different from others.
A young Scottish physician, Gary Gang, came to Uganda for participating in a medical condolence mission. Not only was he appreciated by Amin,...
