I've yet to download this movie of his or even to see any of his other movies or read any of his books, but for those of you that have more interest in him, I present this:

There are some good points in the film. I've debated whether to tell anyone it's worth the 1:40 or whatever it is, but there are some good points, and some funny parts. They also talk to some of the people who supported George Bush and why they did.

Eddie Vedder's version of Cat Steven's "Don't be Shy," was the highlight of the entertainment for me. I thought Joan Baez's singing "Finlandia" was pretty outstanding as well. Roseanne's piece was cute.
