Here’s something that won’t surprise you: Michael Moore has some gripes about how things are going in this country — and he wants to share them with you. The filmmaker behind such blistering hits as Fahrenheit 9/11, Bowling for Columbine and Roger & Me, Moore, 53, is back with Sicko, his soon-to-be released take on the U.S. health-care industry.
The movie, screened for TIME, is double-barreled Moore, a mix of familiar numbers (47 million uninsured Americans, the ever rising cost of care) and chilling moments (the 18-month-old baby who dies of a seizure when she’s denied emergency-room access, the husband and father with kidney cancer whose insurer won’t pay for a bone-marrow transplant). Together, they will have many moviegoers angry enough to gouge holes in their armrests.
But it’s not always clear how fair Moore plays. His romanticized take on Canada’s single-payer health-care system is a few data points shy of a controlled study, and his decision to shoot part of the movie in Cuba made him the subject of a federal investigation, which may be precisely the p.r. gold he was after. Still, the film will surely get people talking, which is just what Moore wants — and just what he did in a wide-ranging conversation with TIME.

Time and Michael—a dynamic duo.
Guess Moore has no particular problems making money in this country.
“Moore in The E.R.”
damn.....had me thinking of 400 joules....
On Glenn Beck’s show last night there was a guy he was interviewing about Moore. Can’t remember the guy’s name, but he wrote a biography of Moore called Big Fat Stupid White Man.
Anyhoo, the point was made that Moore “is what he claims to hates.” He’s affluent, he’s influential, he’s a “success story” (so to speak)...came from poor background and made it as a film producer, etc.

Here, in Canada, rich and poor have equal access to waiting lists for major surgeries.
It will be interesting to see how much Tubby focuses on the ambulance chasers like Breck girl Joan Edwards. Somehow I think it will be nil or very little. I`m sure he`ll show how doctors are super-rich, living it up on golf courses, but let`s see if he shows doctors like obstetricians who pay in excess of $250,000 a year in insurance. Years and years of school, students loan payments from hell, 24 hour intern shifts, and what do you get? Your ass sued off and insurance payments the size of Moores weekly food bill. If Moore wants to blame anyone, he should look no further than Joan Edwards and his multiple mansions.
If you can get an exit visa,that is.
No kidding, for about 5 sec. I had high hopes.
I can’t stand this guy either. I (shamefully) was hoping this meant that the guy was in health problems. Look at what this guy says:
“The right wing and the G.O.P. have done a wonderful job brainwashing people that government doesn’t work,”
No Mike, history books brainwashed me into thinking government doesn’t work.
Despicable that he plays so fast and loose with reality, knowing that so many people believe whatever they see.

Uhhh...Madrid is is Spain, not Cuba.
You are correct,sir/ma'am! And can you think to whom I might have been referring when I made mention of Cubans getting their health care in Spain?
AKA:
Propaganda Reichminister Gobbles
Is at it again
Look what a mess they made of public housing!!
Damn - that headline really had my hopes up...
Lumpy Riefensthal.
Yep, and he owns stock in the pharmacuetical industry he derides.
‘Uhhh...Madrid is is Spain, not Cuba.’
Yes, and thats where the Doctor and equipment came in to help Castro with his latest ailments, which is what the poster was referencing.
