Does Michael Moore hate America?
"Wilson is the star of his own film, as he travels across America seeking an interview with Moore - a request that was ultimately denied.
Ironically, "Michael Moore Hates America" does not accuse Moore of being unpatriotic. Wilson chose to focus instead on what he sees as a consistent disingenuousness in the documentarian's public image. He speaks about Moore with an aura of subdued rage.
"Michael Moore is the American dream," he said. "The guy shouts about what he wants, gets to make movies and write books for a living. He's extremely wealthy. And every time he opens his mouth, he's on CNN. That's the American dream, right? But then he writes chapters in his books ... where he basically says, 'No. There's no such thing as an American success story.' That's a direct contradiction of his own life."
