When I was working on Michael's biography, Citizen Moore, I learned that he has had a long interest in this kind of problem. His first job was running the Davison Hotline, a drug abuse counseling and suicide prevention program that also dealt with spousal abuse. He has had a lot of experience helping people deal with drug abuse. Thank you for this. When I was working on Michael’s biography, Citizen

Its about time the dangers of SSRI antidepressants are made public. These drugs can be extremely dangerous when used in young adults and children, causing an increased risk of suicidality and violence. This isn't passing the buck, its exposing truth about the big Pharma scam and the consequences of our vulnerable youth. Think BLACK BOX WARNINGS!!

As you might expect this film tries to explain why Americans have taken a different approach to health care than countries all over the world and how we pay for this mistake directly and indirectly. Moore himself has gone on a health kick as part of his personal regimen, losing weight, taking long walks and discussing the perils of all those McDonald's fries he has loved over the years. Will this film become a significant part of the national health care debate? You bet. Once again he's found corporate interests to blame for your problems and mine. No surprise there. What is surprising is the way this film takes a familiar subject and offers a humorous and entertaining analysis that is irresistible. Love him or hate him, the fact remains that he has found a way to make documentaries as popular as feature films. Even when he sidesteps the truth - i.e. leaving all his Roger Smith interviews out of Roger & Me - Moore knows how to draw a crowd. And he may save the Weinstein Company in the process.
