Born in 1961, Forest Whitaker has appeared in such films as "Phone Booth" and "The Crying Game." Whitaker won an Oscar in 2007 for his role of Idi Amin in "The Last King of Scotland."

Talented, but a tad over-rated. Played a picture-perfect Idi Amin (simulataneously child-like and terrifying) but has flopped like a beached whale in earlier roles. Seems to be getting better as he gets older, which is unusual for an actor-usually they just get pretentious with wealth and fame and end up playing themselves instead of the part (e.g. Jack Nicolson, Al Pacino).
