Michael Moore takes aim at Bush
It shames me to admit that I've never seen a Michael Moore film. Well, I saw him do a cameo in Canadian Bacon, but that doesn't really count. However, his own films, particularly Roger & Me and Bowling For Columbine, have been on my Films To Watch List for a very long time, and I've yet to pick them up on DVD as I've planned. A few months ago, I almost bought Roger & Me, but then I realized it was a pan-and-scan version, and I put it back in the hopes of finding a widescreen presentation edition. Guess what. I still haven't seen the movie.
According to Film Threat, Moore's latest film, Fahrenheit 9/11, received standing ovations at the Cannes screening. Essentially, this new film takes aim at the Bush administration and its behaviour (particularly Bush's) post-September 11th, 2001. I've added this newest Moore film to my To Watch List, but I'm thinking I really should catch up by watching the others before trying to catch this one. It might give me a better idea of what to expect from the guerilla director.
