two days to go
I think I’ve already made my views clear on michael moore and his filmmaking style (summary: he makes you think, but do not call his films ‘documentaries’). and with only 2 days left until the inevitable name-calling and water cooler wisdom, reviews – with a few exceptions – are split down the middle… exactly as you’d expect in our silly little bipartisan world.
but I think the most interesting bit is what the mouse is offering up as an alternative, according to newsweek:
Disney will offer a counterdocumentary called “America’s Heart and Soul,” with panoramic vistas, soaring music and heartwarming profiles of cowboys, gospel singers and handicapped athletes.
cowboys and handicapped athletes?
wow. point, disney.
