Last King of Scotland

So, we went out with Diane yesterday and saw the Last King of Scotland. You can check out the synopsis and the cast and such at the movie's website I am sure.
I thought that it was really, rather well done. Whitaker was great in his role as the dictator Idi Amin. Definitely pretty hard to watch - and that was a glorified movie version. I can't even begin to think what it must have been like to live thru (or die as the case may be) that.
Diane found it as hard as I did - she kept shielding her eyes when it got violent. At any rate, I would highly recommend it. However, that said, I hope to not see it again any time soon.
