Verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry interestink. But so stupid.
Ummmm ... has it occurred to anyone that MAYBE the film community is at least as disturbed by the (business decision to withhold)(attempt to suppress) this film as they fond of its anti-Bush character? That kinda hits close to home to those folks, you know?
I have to admit that denying that the anti-Bush nature of Moore's films probably played a role in the 20-minute ovation puts you squarely in the middle of De Nile in a pair of concrete boots.
And Sykboy ... be kind to our neo-con friends. Pull the string, the dolly talks. Mention film and France in the same sentence and the Pavlovian repsonse has GOT to include the word "elite." It's how they are wired. (Mike gets bonus points for making Hollywood anti-Jesus, btw.)

PD I did not say all movie fests nor all things french are elitist. I was specificly refering to Cannes.
I missed an opportunity to go a few years ago with some friends. I have first hand reports that it is indeed an elitist event. Want proof? Go there next year.... see how much it costs you.
