The film opens with scenes recalling how CBS national president Al Lance !(s:deglared Florida on election of Idaho and other legion ‘representatives were stand- fr ‘ didate Al Gore and FOX ing on the platform during the convention when Bush was introduced and came on stage. He greeted those on stage and a clip of that moment appears in the movie. The movie is written and directed by Michael Moore, who uses a documentary approach of film footage, interviews and narration to make a critical case against Bush's policies associated with the September 11 ter- rorist attacks and the war on terrorism in Afghanistan and Iraq. The film gained critical acclaim and won top honors at the Cannes Film Festival. Its release in the United States came under fire and Disney-Mirimax dropped original plans to distribute the film in America because of its controversial content. The movie later released by Lions Gate Films hit American theaters on June 25 and made $21.8 million in its first three days, becoming the first documentary to debut as the top film for a weekend premiere. "It talks about things in government people need to know," said Wells, a staunch Democrat who characterizes the film as an "eye-opener." "Anybody who has an open mind and want to see the substantiated truth, just go see it. It makes you realize something has to change in November." Wells said the movie cov- ers a time span beginning with Bush's campaign in 2000 to the current war in PENI ARGS PG-13 9:00PM HV SUPREMACY Starring MATT DAMON Pr SPIDERMAN 2] Business Startup? | Buying A Home?

Other scenes tell of demon- strations along Pennsylvania Ave. in Washington, DC on inauguration day in January 2001, how members of Osama bin Laden's family where flown out of the United States after the September 11 attacks, the Bush family's connection to Saudi Arabia and how Bush attempted to connect terror- ism with his agenda to oust Saddam Hussein as leader of Iraq. Further, Wells said the film shows footage of American soldiers hurt and killed in Iraq and the innocent Iraqi families and children affect- ed by the war and empha- sizes the lack of support for troops in Iraq. The film also criticizes the Patriot Act and claims that Bush used fear tactics to’ gain support of the legisla- tion that members of Congress were not able to study in-depth because of the supposed urgency of its passage. Wells said the film is criti- cal of Democrats for not challenging the 2000 presi- dential election when it came up for ratification by the US Congress and not supporting the notion of not recording the Florida elec- tion results because of the controversy in the state. "It's not just pro- Democrat," said Wells, who called the 90-minute film "well written" and men- tioned that Moore claims he can prove all of information. Wells said some of the incidents highlighted in the film were never covered by the major television news ‘networks. BY =After seeing the movie, "Td ask everybody to see the movie and weigh the movie *“ and ask if this is the person we want to lead our country for the next four years," said Wells. It's time for a change." Stewart, who saw the film on Monday night, laughs at the mention of her movie appearance. She said Moore uses shocking footage to criticize Bush's policies. "I couldn't believer all the things I saw," said Stewart. "If it is authentic, he (Moore) has told a lot of stuff about Bush."
