What brainless little fanatics liberals are these days.
"I knew all this politics crap would be brought up," he said. "We all agreed that Fahrenheit 9/11 was the best movie of the competition."
That's funny .. the critics seem to disagree about it being the best movie

As a critic who awarded Moore's Oscar-winning "Bowling for Columbine" four stars, I was particularly disappointed with "Fahrenheit 9/11."

So the real question is not how good a film is "Fahrenheit 9/11" -- it is undoubtedly Moore's weakest -- but will a film help to get a president fired?

The influential trade paper Variety called the deftly edited movie "a blatant cinematic 2004 campaign pamphlet" and the Hollywood Reporter agreed, dubbing it "an election year device."
Wasn't it shown as a freebie at Cannes? If so then Moore didn't earn anything. He's still got a financial problem if Disney or Miramax won't show the picture. Hats off to both Disney and Miramax. The more ruckus that Moore can raise to get the public's attention the more people will want to see what's up with all the fanfare. Gosh, the worm is so transparent.
Just like Hillary recieves all kinds of awards for books she doesn't even write. What idiot believes politics are not involved?
The notion that Disney and Mirimax are "refusing to distribute" the film is a fantasy invented by Michael Moore to give his film publicity.
To paraphrase one of the last French Philosophers who actually sometimes made sense, "if the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy did not exist, it would be necessary to invent it."
Tarantino works for Miramax, which owns the film.
Not biased at all.
ha!
Well will anyone in this country outside NY(the city), Chicago (the west side), LA, SF and Seattle actually go see this film? I really don't know.
I can name about a thousand?
Wasn't Joe Lockheart, Chris Lehane and a few other of Hellary's thugs just sent over there for spin control??
Yep .. here it is

Top Clintonistas Rush to Rescue Michael Moore
Top spinmeisters for Bill and Hillary Clinton have been dispatched to the Cannes Film Festival to help fend off anticipated Republican attacks on conspiracy-minded filmmaker Michael Moore, whose latest production, "Fahrenheit 9/11," accuses President Bush of conspiring with Osama bin Laden.
They (Disney) apparently did not have the facts that the committee had. Sure, that's it.
Well, then it's a good thing this movie is not political.
