Well, Michael Moore says his new agit-propumentary about the health care industry, “Sicko”, is about 3/4s finished. Money quote from the Variety article:
“We’ve spent the better part of the year shooting our next movie, ‘Sicko.’ As we’ve done with our other films, we don’t discuss them while we are making them,” Moore wrote. “If people ask, we tell them ‘Sicko’ is ‘a comedy about the 45 million people with no health care in the richest country on Earth.”
They have health care; they don’t have health insurance. There’s a big difference.
Looks like Moore is his usual “don’t-let-the-facts-stand-in-the-way” self.
P.S. Take a look at the picture accompanying the article. Guess his dumpy, everyman look that he tried so hard to effect fell victim to his desire to fit in with the Hollywood crowd.
