Additional Information
Forest Whitaker delivers an Oscar-winning, ferociously commanding performance as bloodthirsty Ugandan president Idi Amin in Kevin MacDonaldÆs THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND. Adapted from the novel by Giles Foden, the film recounts AminÆs horrific reign through the eyes of a fictional character, Nick Garrigan (James McAvoy), a young doctor from Scotland who travels to Uganda hoping to do some good. Nick is more sanguine about new president Amin than his counterpart Sarah Merrit (Gillian Armstrong) is, whose experience causes her to be sceptical of AminÆs bombastic declarations. After an automobile accident, Nick is called in to treat the presidentÆs wounds. His authoritative behaviour impresses Amin, who charms Nick into becoming his personal physician. Nick embraces his newfound life of luxury, but he is unable to grasp the reality of the situation. When he does finally realise the atrocities Amin is inflicting upon his people (and is also capable of inflicting on Nick), the terrified doctor tries to make a frantic escape before it's too late. MacDonald, director of the acclaimed documentaries ONE DAY IN SEPTEMBER and TOUCHING THE VOID, makes a startlingly assured transition into fictional filmmaking with THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND. Working with cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle (THE CELEBRATION) and editor Justine Wright, MacDonald brings 1970s Uganda to pulsating life, perfectly recreating that tumultuous era. But ultimately the film belongs to Whitaker: as he shifts from charming to maniacal in the space of a short, unexpected breath, he infuses Amin with startling humanity.

- 7***e (2129)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem arrived with a damaged jewel case i.e. snapped bottom hinge! The seller responded promptly to my message regarding the matter, and I don't doubt for a moment that the item was despatched in the condition described. But I do think that the packaging used wasn't appropriately robust enough for transit! The seller offered a refund including return shipping costs but I try to avoid this due to personal circumstances, therefore I retained the CD. Positive feedback given because of good CS.CD / The Best of the Human League [Emi Gold] by The Human League (CD, 2004) (#256523912170)
