This Day in History
Fifty-five years ago today, a great American named Michael Moore was born in Flint, MI. The Academy Award winning filmmaker has been the director and producer of three of the top five highest grossing documentaries of all time. If you have not seen at least one of his amazing films, then I am not too sure what in the hell is wrong with you. With that being said, aside from his most popular documentaries ("Bowling for Columbine", "Fahrenheit 9/11" and, most recently, "SiCKO"), I would also highly recommend "Roger & Me". Released in 1989, the film focuses on how his hometown of Flint was drastically affected after General Motors closed its factories and opened new operations in Mexico.
