HOLLYWOOD - Controversial filmmaker Michael Moore has defended his new documentary Sicko from claims foreign distributors aren't interested.
The movie, which takes aim at America's healthcare system, has so far failed to attract bids in the U.K. Industry insiders suggest poor box office takings and mixed reviews in the U.S. could be to blame.
However, Moore insists he's not worried by Britain's apparent apathy...

There is a question as to "Sicko's" health in Britain? Oh, my...
Maybe Michael should do what VIP British celebrities do when they're ill--- and fly "Sicko" to the US for superior medical care.
Gee, I wonder why people in other countries would have no interest in sitting through two hours of hearing that the US health care system sucks and that their own system, which makes them wait for years for treatment until they keel over dead, is Heaven on Earth? Don’t people in other countries enjoy fantasy movies?
Once can hope...
I think you're right. They also aren't exactly happy campers about socialized medicine.
And the above is the fantasy reality they now face because of government-run medicine.
46% of British doctors in the Universal Healthcare System are apparently foreign-born, and not from the European Union. Bright young British citizens see no future in Medicine, so there is a doctor shortage--- requiring the importation from Muslim countries.
It should be a lesson for America, but the connection will get no airplay from the "disinterested" MSM.
Your posts made me think of how lonely Michael Moore must feel over "Sicko". Until you guys arrived, I was fully prepared to fly it to Cuba for proper medical care. Below is a Cuban ambulance. : )
ha..pretty funny... I hope moore crashes and burns on this...
Good God, 46%! I didn’t realize it was that bad!
I mean there's estimated to be more than 100,000 Cubans at the bottom of the Florida Straits trying to escape Castro's shangri-la. How stupid does he think people are?
Michael Moore's Epitaph: "He Died of Fever "Fahrenheit 911".
Maybe Moore can find a nice Muslim doctor in London.
yes, every country with sclerotic socialized medicine, where the best hope is to be wealthy enough to pay for private treatment or hop a plane to he USA, should be gaga over the latest imbecilities from the excremental Michael Moore
