I was talking to a guy I know tonight about Fahrenheit 9/11. I pointed him to a couple of critical pieces, the centerpieces of which are that the film isn’t fair. He responded, “of course, as Moore said, it’s an op-ed piece.” Interesting. The imdb says it’s a documentary, and the word “documentary” appears in at least a few places on the movie site, but from the interview or two of Moore I’ve seen, I too got the impression that he was making a case.

  2. This is a surprise? Documentaries generally do present an opinion, even if it’s a nice non-controversial opinion like “The Talking Heads are a great band.” I don’t remember anyone complaining that Stop Making Sense didn’t spend any time on people who hated David Byrne.

    “It’s so biased. It just showed the applause.”
