Light Holiday Fare


After dinner on Thursday I went to the movies -- to see "The Last King of Scotland" starring Forest Whitaker.

It's a gritty film about the rise and fall of Idi Amin in Uganda.

There's lots of buzz about Whitaker getting an Oscar nomination, but I went primarily because Whitaker and I went to high school together.

We weren't close friends, but always exchanged pleasantries in the hallways. He kept me posted on the doings of the Drama Club.

His time in drama class at Palisades High School sure has paid off! He gives quite an amazing performance as the African dictator. Posted by Picasa
