Oh what an inventive title for a post that is! Yet strangely appropriate…

Last night Ange & I went to a preview showing of Michael Moore’s new film, Bowling for Columbine. It really is an extraordinary movie. We knew exactly what to expect, but it was still shocking, amusing and moving. We learned just how fucked up America really is, how cute and cool Canada seems to be, what an asshole Charlton Heston (president of the NRA) is, etc etc. I don’t have anything particuarly eloquent to say, but it’s an essential movie everyone should see at least once.
I will say, though, that both the movie site and Mike Moore’s site (both linked above) are choc full of information that ought to politicise any who read it them.

Amusingly, my friend Jordan (FourPlay’s manager) and his girlfriend were freakishly at the same showing, and not only that, but when Ange went to find a seat with her friend Nicole, she happened to sit in the same row as him… I was trying to buy popcorn but the queue was too long - so Jordan passed his huge carton along.
