 From news.bbc.c.uk: " Anti-Bush film tops Cannes awards. Director Michael Moore ♣'s controversial anti-Bush documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 ♣ has won the prestigious Palme d'Or best film award ♣ at the Cannes festival ♣. It was the first documentary to win the top prize since Jacques Cousteau's The Silent World ♣ in 1956. The film received a 15-minute standing ovation when it was screened on Monday. Fahrenheit 9/11 explores the Iraq war and alleges connections between President George W Bush and top Saudi families, including the Bin Ladens. Thanking the jury headed by cult director Quentin Tarantino ♣, he added: "You will ensure that the American people will see this movie...You have put a huge light on this." The critical reaction to the film has generally been positive, with praise coming from The Washington Post ♣, Time Magazine ♣ and British newspapers including The Independent ♣ and The Telegraph ♣. Fahrenheit 9/11 was competing against 18 other films for the Palme d'Or. " [CLICK HERE TO VIEW THIS PICTURE] posted by knn |

 HA, big fan of both Tarantino and Moore! 
I used to watch his show 'The Awful Truth' and loved Bowling for Columbine, can't wait to see Faranheit 9/11. His books are good too.

 I liked Stupid White Men, but when it came to Dude Where's My Country I found it was basically just more of the same. I didn't really find it very funny or inciteful. Can't wait for Fahrenheit 9/11 though. P.S. Tarantino is awesome! posted by fatpie42 |

 I heard from a friend who was at Cannes that this is Moore's best film. He says that he really gets off his soap box and just presents facts. I'm definately very interested in seeing this movies. Oh yeah, QT is indeed the man.
