Over his career, as both a filmmaker and author, Michael Moore has become one of the left wing’s most vocal speakers. He is one of the most recognized documentary filmmakers, however not always for the best reasons. In this video, http://www.WatchMojo.com takes a closer look at the career of Michael Moore.
Good old Moore… he’s always got something bothering him. In this case its getting the youth of America to vote. I’ll agree that its not a bad cause, but it doesn’t change the fact that he’s incredibly annoying. Watch it HERE for free online.
The words healthcare and comedy aren’t usually found in the same sentence, but in Academy Award-winning director Michael Moore’s latest film SiCKO, they go together hand in (rubber) glove. With such landmark, controversial and record-breaking films as Roger & Me, Bowling for Columbine and Fahrenheit 9/11, Michael Moore has proven to be one of the most provocative, fearless and witty filmmakers of our time. His newest film, the informative yet inconceivable, entertaining yet disturbing and saddening yet inspiring documentary SiCKO sheds light on a sickening issue. With almost 50 million Americans uninsured and those who are insured, often victims of unfair restrictions for care, Moore takes a gentler, bi-partisan approach to inform, inspire and touch the hearts of his audience to call for a systematic change of action. With heart-wrenching and empathy-provoking testimonies from both patients and former insurance company employees, SiCKO depicts the frustrations and difficulties of the inability to obtain treatment and life-saving care when desperately needed due to the inevitabilities of a for-profit healthcare system.
The SiCKO DVD features over 80 minutes of all-new material including seven new segments, as well as eye-opening interviews, and more:

Three New York rescue workers injured in the Sept. 11 attacks got the best treatment Cuba can offer in Michael Moore’s film critique of U.S. health care, the Cuban doctors who attended them said this week.
The 9/11 responders spent 10 days on the 19th floor of Cuba’s flagship hospital with a view of the Caribbean sea, a sharp contrast to many Cuban hospitals that are crumbling, badly lit, and which lack equipment and medicines.
They included a fireman and an emergency medical technician, Regina Cervantes, with respiratory problems caused by inhaling dust and fumes in the World Trade Center ruins.
They were given a barrage of tests, including a psychological evaluation, and new dosages of medication. One got a tooth implant for a jaw fractured at Ground Zero.
The main difference with their treatment in the United States: there was no bill.
