Lefty filmmakers 'disappointed and disillusioned' with Michael Moore

Liberal filmmakers learned the truth about Michael Moore while trying to film a flattering documentary about him. AP:

As documentary filmmakers, Debbie Melnyk and Rick Caine looked up to Michael Moore.

Then they tried to do a documentary of their own about him — and ran into the same sort of resistance Moore himself famously faces in his own films.

The result is "Manufacturing Dissent," which turns the camera on the confrontational documentarian and examines some of his methods. Among their revelations in the movie, which had its world premiere Saturday night at the South by Southwest film festival: That Moore actually did speak with then-General Motors chairman Roger Smith, the evasive subject of his 1989 debut "Roger & Me," but chose to withhold that footage from the final cut.

[...]

"We're a bit disappointed and disillusioned with Michael," Melnyk said, "but we are still very grateful to him for putting documentaries out there in a major way that people can go to a DVD store and they're right up there alongside dramatic features."

I remember sitting at coffee shops -- havens for hard-left fools -- when "Fahrenheit 9/11" was in theaters. I heard things like, "I can't believe that Bush," and "Bush is Hitler. We must stop him." I also remember sitting in the theater, waiting for Moore's "9/11" to begin. All the socialist stereotypes were there -- Che Guevara t-shirts, unkempt beards, body odor, piercings.

While I was suspicious of Moore, every lefty I knew viewed his biased smearjob as absolute fact. I wonder what they think after seeing "Fahrenhype 9/11" and "Manufacturing Dissent"? The next time around, will these lefties exhibit that quality they find so lacking in Bush -- intellectual curiosity?
