Hi Smurf,
It's "Fahrenheit 9/11."
Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" is less an expose of George W. Bush
than a dramatization of what Moore sees as a failed and dangerous presidency.
The charges in the film will not come as news to those who pay attention to
politics, but Moore illustrates them with dramatic images and a relentless
commentary track that essentially concludes Bush is incompetent, dishonest,
failing in the war on terrorism, and has bad taste in friends.

... One last thought: "Fahrenheit 9/11" is many things,
but for pity's sake let's not call it a documentary. To do so abuses the word
and shames the good and balanced work done by filmmakers as storied as D.A.
Pennebaker and Barbara Kopple, as current as Jehane Noujaim of "Control Room,"
and as hard-working and unheralded as Carma Hinton of Brookline's Long Bow
Group. ...
Cheers CtrlAltDel!
Sounds like it's going to cause quite a bit of controvosy! Have you
personally or anyone you know seen it yet?
Love Smurf xxx
