The Last King of Scotland (Widescreen Edition)

January 28th, 2011

The Last King of Scotland (Widescreen Edition)

As Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, Forest Whitaker gives “one of the greatest performances of modern movie history” (Wall Street Journal), one that the Associated Press calls “nothing short of Oscar(r) worthy.” This is Amin’s incredible story as seen through the eyes of Nicholas Garrigan (James McAvoy), a young Scotsman who becomes the volatile leader’s personal physician, due in part to Amin’s unexpected passion for Scottish culture — Amin even proclaims himself “The Last King of Scotland”. Seduced by Amin’s charisma and blinded by decadence, Garrigan’s dream life becomes a waking nightmare of betrayal and madness from which there is no escape. Inspired by real people and events, this gripping, suspenseful stunner is filled with performances you will never forget.

As the evil Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, Forest Whitaker gives an unforgettable performance in The Last King of Scotland. Powerfully illustrating the terrible truth that absolute power corrupts absolutely, this fictionalized chronicle of Amin’s rise and fall is based on the acclaimed novel by Giles Foden, in which Amin’s despotic reign of terror is viewed through the eyes of Nicholas Garrigan (James McAvoy), a Scottish doctor who arrives in Uganda in the early 1970s to serve as Amin’s personal physician. His outsider’s perspective causes him to be initially impressed by Amin’s calculated rise to power, but as the story progresses–and as Whitaker’s award-worthy performance grows increasingly monstrous–The Last King of Scotland turns into a pointed examination of how independent Uganda (a British colony until 1962) became a breeding ground for Amin’s genocidal tyranny. As Whitaker plays him, Amin is both seductive and horribly destructive–sometimes in the same breath–and McAvoy effectively conveys the tragic cost of his character’s naiveté, which grows increasingly prone to exploitation. As directed by Kevin Macdonald (who made the riveting semi-documentary Into the Void), this potent cautionary tale my prompt some viewers to check out Barbet Schroeder’s equally revealing documentary General Idi Amin Dada, an essential source for much of this film’s authentic detail. –Jeff Shannon

Alonzo(Denzel Washington) famous last words Training Day

The Final Moments of Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington)in Training Day this is the speech that got him the oscar.
Video Rating: 4 / 5

Just before the start of the 2010 major league baseball season, news leaked that the Texas Rangers manager–Ron Washington–had tested positive for cocaine in July of the 2009 season. This was an unprecedented and unbelievable revelation that shocked the Rangers’ fan base. Why a 57-year-old professional baseball manager decides to do cocaine during the baseball season–allegedly his first time using the drug–is beyond me. I wrote and produced this animation as a parody of the situation and the style is a tribute to Brad Neely’s hilarious “Washington” animation. Enjoy.
