Summaries

On his book tour, Michael Moore exposes wrongdoing by big greedy businesses and callous politicians around America.

Our intrepid defender of the working man, Michael Moore, documents his 1996 "Downsize This!" book tour across the USA. Shot on-the-cheap with a video camera, we once again watch our hero interview the working man at yet another plant closing, while also trying to get past corporate security guards to interview the millionaire CEOs.—Tim G. <[email protected]>
