Roger and Me, a great reminder of the Reagan/Bush 1 years.
Edited on Wed Jun-09-04 02:55 PM by Melodybe
Roger and Me is my favorite work, so far, of Micheal Moore. While the Aweful Truth and Bowling for Columbine are great, Roger and Me is by far his best.

I expect 9/11 to be better, but until I see it, Roger and Me wins.

This is a great movie to make freepers watch, because it was made 20 years ago and it focuses more on the effects of Reaganomics, rather than Ronnie or HW.

For any that haven't seen it, it is worth your time and I promise you will like it. It is by far one of the best documentaries ever made.

3. A They Live/Roger and Me double feature would rule.
I think I'll invite a few over to do just that. Thanks for the idea.

2. One of my all-time favorites
Roger and Me only to be surpassed by some future work by Moore framing this Bush administration.

Cant wait for that one.

4. I was blown away the first time I saw it
It was so different from anything else I'd seen.
