be prepared to be sick
i had to try two times, before i could make it all the way thru. this movie should be the centerpiece of grassroots campaigns of any kind, regarless of issue. it unites people across the political spectrum, and you can tie it to any subject by saying, "but if we had universal single payer, there'd be more money for X." it's really that simple.
MM simple made a Masterpiece with this film. which is horrifying, because he hardly had to do anything "creative" to do it. the harsh truth is enough to make epic film.
