Interesting when made, irrelevant now.

I saw this movie in Israel in 1975. At the time Amin was in his heyday and because of his relationship with Israel the film was very interesting, featuring interviews with Amin and him showing off his armed forces.

Today, with Amin a nobody in Saudi Arabia, this film is but an asterisk of history.
