Here are a few tidbits of the type of films the City (that would be you as well gentle reader) has been subsidizing:
No End in Sight-"The first film of its kind to chronicle the reasons behind Iraq s descent into guerrilla war warlord rule criminality and anarchy NO END IN SIGHT is a jaw-dropping insider s tale of wholesale incompetence recklessness and venality...examines the manner in which the principal errors of U.S. policy the use of insufficient troop levels allowing the looting of Baghdad.."(From the Films Self Description)
Sicko (Special Edition)Directed by Michael Moore-"Following on the heels of his Palm d'Or winning Fahrenheit 9/11 and his Oscar winning film Bowling for Columbine acclaimed filmmaker Michael Moore's new documentary sets out to investigate the American healthcare system."(From the Films Self Description)Who Killed the Electric Car?-"In 1996 electric cars began to appear on roads all over California. They were quiet and fast produced no exhaust and ran without gasoline. Ten years later these futuristic cars were almost entirely gone."(From the Films Self Description)
An Inconvenient Truth- Everybody knows this one is balancedWhy We Fight-"...offers a revealing look at how America has readied itself for battle and what compels us to so frequently wage war around the world...an unflinching examination of the forces fueling the American military machine for over half a century and their global consequences."(From the Films Self Description)
Plus many other obscure art films and some good stuff.Anybody see a political message?
We looked for a movie supportive of the military or offering something less than an overtly liberal view. No Luck.
No problem, but why is our government sponsoring and subsidizing it?
