Criterion releasing "Idi Amin Dada" and "Horse's Mouth" in May (1 Viewer)

[ReggieW]

The specs are now up at the offical Criterion homepage. I am looking forward to both of these films, especially seeing that Idi Amin (Dada) is my favorite dictator (just kidding). Anyway, I believe that the person who directed this documentary, Bardet Schroeder, was Malick's cinematographer on "Days of Heaven" (correct me if I'm wrong). Now what would've been really cool, was if Criterion had acquired the rights to those old Amin imitations that Garrett Morris use to do back on SNL in the 70's as a bonus feature!

Schroeder has never been a cinematographer: check out Link Removed.
The credited DP on Days of Heaven was Link Removed, although Link Removed claims to have shot more than half the film. (See the penultimate paragraph of Roger Ebert's review for the details.)

Thanks Doug. I stand corrected. I knew there was a strong possibility that I was wrong.
