Go Michael Moore
May. 17th, 2004 02:02 pmApparently Farenheit 9/11 just premiered in Cannes to a 20-minute standing ovation, the longest in the history of the festival.
I am copying this from the Drudge Report because, well, the fewer people actually go to his site the better, but it's exciting news nevertheless.
20 mins standing ovation for FAHRENHEIT 9-11, yelling, screaming, cheering... 'This is the longest stading ovation in the history of the festival! Unbelievable!' declared Cannes stalwart Thierry Fremaux. Moore, raising fist, unable to speak over crowd, vows to fight... Controversial scene in film shows wounded American GI in Iraq talking about how Democrats must win election... Movie shows video of U.S. soldiers laughing as they place hoods over Iraqi detainees, with one of them grabbing a prisoner's genitals through a blanket...
Nothing on CNN of course, except some convenient miniscule amount of S(c)arin gas.
