Michael Moore and Oprah: 'A Love Story'? September 2, 2009
When it comes to the most eagerly anticipated movie showing at next week's Toronto Film Festival, the hands-down winner has to be Michael Moore's "Capitalism: A Love Story."
Arriving 20 years after the debut of "Roger & Me," it is being billed as Moore's magnum opus on the horrific impact of corporate dominance on the lives of everyday Americans, which means that the film should spark a conflagration of debate between Moore's always ferocious advocates and detractors.
But when I called Overture Films, which is releasing the film later this month, eager to set up an interview with Moore, I got bad news. The filmmaker was willing to do interviews after the film premieres in Toronto on Sept. 16, but Overture said that all interviews were embargoed until Sept. 23, the day of the film's release in New York and Los Angeles.
Why? Because Moore is doing a sit-down interview with Oprah Winfrey, which won't air until Sept. 22.
And if Oprah wants an exclusive, she gets it, since when it comes to books, movies or music, no one offers a better promotional platform than La Winfrey.

Ahm, because they can't make millions there, they can only make millions here as long as we are still a free society?
Do I win?
Let me take a shot... because they're imbeciles.
“... horrific impact of corporate dominance on the lives of everyday Americans,...”

All the “horrific impact” I’ve experienced has been from our bloated government. I can walk away from ANY corporation, and make a deal with another, but the government has me in their shackles.
Like those horrific jobs and paychecks they used to provide for so many Americans? I guess Michael thinks it's evil to work for any corporation that's not dominated by labor unions and govt.
What a fat ugly fool.
Open the latest Webster’s dictionary to the word maggot and you will be treated to a picture of Michael Moore.
Great response!
That’s terrible. Maggots are a lot more respectable (and attractive) than Jabba the Commie Slut.
Lessee, two fat pigs who make MILLIONS by selling propaganda to Americans about what a crappy country they live in . . . . . . . . yeah!! I can see them hooking up!! They’re about right for each other.
