If you saw the recent film ‘The Last King of Scotland’, then you will no doubt be intrigued by Idi Amin. Or to call him by his correct name "His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea, and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular". In English we say……… nutter.

Thanks to the rather splendid chaps over at Eureka Entertainment, we can help you out in your quest for Idi knowledge, as they have given us four copies of ‘General Idi Amin Dada: Autoportrait’ on DVD to give away.

This is a rare chance to see inside the world of Idi Amin, this film is a portrait of the inadvertently comic but bloodthirsty Dictator of Uganda, 'General Idi Amin Dada' is an astonishing achievement of documentary filmmaking, with director Schroder coaxing a very candid discourse from the tyrant. The film also features an accordion soundtrack performed by the dictator himself, honestly, we sh*t you not, big Idi plays the squeeze box!

Thanks for the info Smith,
Forest Whitaker was brilliant in 'The Last King of Scotland' and I'd love to have a peek at 'Idi Amin Dada', hopefully I'll be in with a chance of seeing this nutter of a leader on my telly again, if I have a go.

I saw a documentary on Idi a while ago and it was a shocker – the guy was a complete nutter and it’s no wonder that his “policies” led to the death of an estimated 500,000 people.

It makes you realise how on-the-ball Forest Whitaker was with his recent performance in ‘The Last King of Scotland’. I can’t recommend this film enough.

I saw this in france whilst working out there. It is odd that he actually approved of this. It is definately compelling viewing, but disturbing too. i have entered - fingers crossed this one is a keeper.

smiths1111

Yeah, I was surprised that he approved of it as well. Bizarre.
