The Retro Set
Rating: 5/5 --
It's an illuminating examination of the egotism behind evil. Given a blank canvas, Amin can only create a self-portrait that is of a brutal and ugly monster yearning to be loved, painted devilish red and dripping with the blood of the innocent.

Idi Amin Dada is not a particularly good documentary, but it's often a fascinating one.

A haunting portrait of authoritarian egocentricity that should serve as a cautionary tale to future generations.
