Forest Whitaker Will Play Amin

I was hoping it would be Jesse Jackson.

My brother who was traveling around Africa in the mid '70s was invited to have dinner with Amin by one of Amin's trusted advisors [ a Brit I think.] He passed on the invitation ... The most amazing thing about Amin is just how erratic and impulsive he was. I have no idea whether it was safer to accept or decline. [BTW my brother is still alive and kicking.]

For what it is worth, although it would not make as good a story after 30 years, it is very clear that it would be safer to have dinner with Whitaker. :<) !!!!

Works for me - Whitaker is a fantastic actor (and one of my favorites). If you ever get a chance to see him in "Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai," I'm sure you'll agree.
