You may have heard Michael Moore's new film "Slacker Uprising" is available for free to everyone in the United States and Canada. It is the first time ever that a major feature-length film is debuting as a free download on the internet -- legally.
Why did Michael Moore decide to do this? There are two reasons:
1. Next year it will be the 20th anniversary since his first film, "Roger & Me," so he wants to thank everyone who has supported his work.
2. Michael is hoping to motivate new voters to make it to the polls on November 4th.
"Slacker Uprising" takes place in the wake of "Fahrenheit 9/11," during the run-up to the 2004 election, as he traveled for 42 days across America, visiting 62 cities in an attempt to remove George W. Bush from office. His goal was to help turn out a record number of young voters and others who had never voted before. What follows is often surprising, funny, enlightening and frightening.

Yet another honorable move on Michael Moore's part.
Thank you, Michael, for all you do.
Why had I not heard of this before? Only on Ironweed Film's blog was I first made aware of this. Hope it is still available to download!
