Fahrenheit 9/11
I caught a clip of the "Fahrenheit 9/11" film and I'm not really sure what to think. I suppose Mr. Moore might actually have some good points to make. I'm just not so sure about how he is going about it. First of all it seems there has been an attempt to make it more controversial than it is in order to generate publicity. It reminds me some of the recent publicity/hype around "The Passion" movie. The other thing that didn't sit so well with me in the preview of "Fahrenheit 9/11" was the role that Michael Moore appeared to play in the film. My understanding is that film makers at their best simply disappear, are relatively unnoticed, especially on screen. From the preview it was as if Mr. Moore were playing a prominent role in the film, it's as if it is a film about him, his politics, his crusade. While I might be on board with his cause, or whatever, I don't know about the method... as usual that may just be me.
