At inappropriate times they applauded, the politically correct, white middle class audience at the Academy Theatre in avante guard Northampton, MA, home of Smith College, and many fine restaurants. But, then again, Michael Moore was preaching to the choir, wasn't he? And that's the first of two big problems with Fahrenheit 911. The other big problem is this frivolous film's utter futility. <<<<<>>>>>
first problem with above article: venue & environment that author viewed film, get out some man, go see film in mass. equivalents of kissimmee fl, ocala, fl, eustis, fl (places where film is playing, towns where no films like this ever play)... second problem with above article: it makes all easy criticisms of moore's work (at least he had sense - with one lapse into schtick of trying to get people to do things they don't want to do, in this case, get members of congress to enlist their children to go to iraq, this type of scene has really become annoying in moore's films)... so what does article leave readers with, self-congratulatory air of author who is able to see michael moore for what he 'really' is, like wow... michael hoover -------------------------------------------------------------- Please Note: Due to Florida's very broad public records law, most written communications to or from College employees regarding College business are public records, available to the public and media upon request.
