The Film that Disney Blocked

Lion's Gate is going to distribute Michael Moore's controversial new film "Fahrenheit 9/11".
The distributors plan to start showing the movie in U.S. theaters on June 25, with pay television rights to be handled by Showtime, a partner of Lion's Gate, AFP said.

The film, which won the Cannes Film Festival's Palme D'Or last month, criticizes President George W. Bush's response to terrorism and also highlights ties between the Bush family and Saudi oil families.

Update: Fahrenheit 9/11's trailer is now online. Also check out reviews from IMDB. Apparently you don't need to actually have seen the movie to say whether or not you liked it.
