Because the marketplace demands it (those YouTube leaks!), the Weinstein Company is releasing Michael Moore's U.S. Health Care jeremiad, "Sicko," a week early on a single screen in New York City this Friday. Not in Times Square but need to get in on the action before the movie opens as scheduled on June 29th? There are sneak previews Saturday in more than two dozen American cities.
Speaking of Moore: NPR's Kim Masters managed to irritate him in a piece that ran this morning about the film, when she understandably inquired about the factual accuracy of his movies. He seemed miffed that not even liberal-old NPR is giving him a free pass.
