Fahrenheit 9/11 premieres in Australia

Fahrenheit 9/11 premieres in Australia: "Michael Moore's controversial documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 has caused a stir internationally, but its Sydney premiere was a low-key affair.
Attended by politicians, bureaucrats and members of Australia's arts community, the premiere was held at Sydney's Fox Studios on Thursday night.

'It's a film that creates debate and discussion and that's why it's low key,' Fahrenheit 9/11 film distributor Troy Lum said.
'It's not a film that you'd want to go out and celebrate.'
The film doesn't officially open in Australia until July 29, but advance screening tickets went on sale this week and premieres were held around the country, with the exception of Melbourne, which will be held on Friday.
Retiring federal Labor MP Laurie Brereton said he wasn't expecting the premiere to be major production.
'It's not the opening night of Rupert Murdoch's Moulin Rouge, that's for sure."
