Moore Promises New America-Hating Film

Michael “Two Dinners” Moore is planning a sequel to his despicable Fahrenheit 9/11, and he’s promising one of the most anti-American movies ever made.

He’s hyping it in France right now. He’s big in France. Actually, he’s just ... big.

CANNES, France (Reuters) - Oscar-winning documentary maker Michael Moore, who this week unveiled plans for a follow-up to his anti-Bush polemic “Fahrenheit 9/11,” said on Friday the new film would cover topics so “toxic” he probably should not make it.

But Moore, whose work ranges from an expose of American gun culture in “Bowling for Columbine” to a scathing critique of U.S. health care in “SiCKO,” relishes controversy, so his unnamed new movie will likewise be risky, he told reporters at the Cannes film festival.

“It’s something I shouldn’t make, something that is dangerous,” he said.
