By all accounts the latest Mike Moore movie, "Sicko" has attracted critical acclaim at the Cannes Film Festival. In typical Moore fashion it evidently takes no prisoners!
On his blog / web site, Moore "reports" on Cannes and his new film:
"At the press screening for "Sicko," the Wall Street Journal reported that hardened reporters and critics wept. Even those who have been harsh to me in the past, or who have not agreed with my politics, were moved. Aside from my stated desire that "Sicko" ignite a fire for free, universal health care (and a larger wish that we, as Americans, do a better job of treating each other with a true sense of solidarity and respect), I continue to hope that I can make a contribution to the art of cinema and give people a good reason to get out of the house for a few hours."
