"The Big One"...Michael Moore"'Fahrenheit 9/11' Wins Cannes' Top Prize"
Remember last year March when Michael Moore was booed at the Academy awards due to his bashing of Geroge W. Bush during his acceptance speech for 'Bowling for Columbine'?...he was nearly shooed off the stage by the security people and the audience. well this year at the Cannes Film festival, Moore won the prestigious Palme d'Or best film award at the closing ceremony for 'Fahrenheit 9/11'. Moore recieved a standing ovation from the Cannes public who loved the movie which caused controversy here in the States. Disney refused to release such contentious film at a time so near to the presidential elections. and so far there are still no conclusion to whether or not the movie will be released in the U.S.(or Moore would like to call, "the big one")
'Fahrenheit 9/11'accused Bush of withholding terrorist attack information before Sep 11 in order to secure his votes back in 2000, and also "fanning fears of more attacks to secure Americans' support for the Iraq war."
This accusation sounds similar to the Iran Hostage crisis back in late 70's, early 80's. Carter lost the election in 1980 against Ronald Reagan due to the public disappointment with him regarding to his failure of resolving the crisis. there were proof that resurfaced in the 90's of Ronald Reagan's involvement in delaying the release of hostages at the embassy in Iran. Prior to the election, negotiations were carried out for the hostages to be released, but under some sort of deal involving money and weapons, the hostages(people who work at the embassy)were to be held captive until after the Reagan's inauguration, then they were finally released after 444 days of being under captive.
