Sorry TL, Cannes is different from the Academy Awards. It's international, it has a different group of professionals every year that has to choose between many different films from many different countries where the academy awards are just about the little world of hollywood, hollywood and only hollywood. So the Academy Awards have to be political in the way you described (and I have nothing at all against that - and in fact I loved Denzel in Training Day, he played a real psycho with ease). Cannes has really nothing to win in being political, that's why I really think Farheneit 911 is indeed a good movie. The best proof is that it has been awarded by Tarantino not by Susan Sarrandon or Sean Penn. [img]smile.gif[/img]

On the political aspect now, this movie CANT be full of lies, it may have some flaws of course, but you cant do a 2 hours documentary with only lies from the beginning to the end, else its kinda noticeable. And I still don't understand how some of you can still defend GWB and his admnistration after all they've done. I understand he is your president and you have to show some respect, ok. But what good did he exactly do to this world ? Democracy has this purpose : when the leading team sucks, you can replace it, you're not supposed to support it full time. But, well, that's another story.
