Sneak Preview of Michael Moore's Sicko

Whether you like Michael Moore or think he's an anti-American nutjob, the guy's coming out with a new movie. Sicko is a study of America's (failing) health care system.

Moore talks to victims (like a man who had to choose which of his two severed fingers to reattach, because he couldn't afford both) and perpetrators (oft-repentant health insurance agents) of the U.S. health care system, then trots (okay, maybe plods) around the globe in search of solutions to our health care problems. Not surprisingly, Moore finds his favorite answers in France (anti-freedom, pro-health), Canada (marijuana solves all health issues!), and Cuba (those commies really know how to treat a patient). While Moore is more concerned with pushing his agenda than telling all sides of the story, many of the issues he exposes are real and do need to be addressed.

Fox News found a lot of problems with Sicko, while the L.A. Times found fewer. Time also interviewed Moore about the difficulties of creating--and insuring--a film about insurance. Check out Sicko for yourself tomorrow at the Regal Arbor Cinema--maybe you'll learn something.
