You know, all things aside whether you dislike or approve of Michael Moore and what he did, I think that detracts from the purpose of the film. Which is to bring awareness of what can happen in societies, it's something to learn from. I feel anything that can cause us to question the truths we've been fed can only be a good thing. Regardless of the outcome, it's important to ask questions, of our leaders, religious and political. That is what I feel the film was trying to achieve. It's about: "Look at us, look at me, I'm an American, I belong to the NRA but I can still say 'this is wrong, this is fucked up'."
I think it's a valuable lesson, it's about waking up and looking at what's around you, it's about breaking the bounderies of peripheral vision and going within to see if what you've been told to be the truth really resonates with you. If it does, cool, at least it would have brought you (everyone) closer to knowing yourself better. |
