I finally watched Michael Moore’s Where to Invade Next on PPV. I’m guessing it didn’t do well at the movie theaters since it’s on PPV so soon but I liked it. It’s a good movie, and he’s a talented guy. The film reads like a two-hour-long ad for Hillary. I know Moore isn’t a Hillary supporter (any longer) but we are not so stupid as to believe that authorial intention is important, are we?
People take things very literally and look for stuff they “agree” with. Which often prevents them from enriching themselves intellectually and achieving any growth as human beings. I don’t “agree” with Moore’s movie on anything but the need to elect Hillary (which he probably didn’t mean) but I don’t feel threatened by difference and managed to enjoy the film a lot. And I cleaned the fridge while doing it and barely even noticed.
I still need to make dinner, so maybe I’ll rewatch the film.
