  • Quotes
    Truth is not singular - we have different ways of seeing things. Truth exists in fiction and truth exists in non-fiction. Anyone who sees a Michael Moore film and thinks they're getting an absolute, objective truth is sadly mistaken. They should know that based on the conventions and the style of filmmaking - he's making an entertaining movie. And as such, he's going to take a certain license.
