The Korea Herald : Bush-bashing film screened at Assembly
The Korea Herald : The Nation's No.1 English Newspaper: "More than 900 people, including about 20 lawmakers, crowded into the 450-seat National Assembly hall yesterday to see 'Fahrenheit 9/11,' Michael Moore's harshly critical documentary of U.S. President George W. Bush.
The screening was organized by the liberal Democratic Labor Party two days before the film goes public at dozens of Korean movie houses. The documentary hits out at Bush's handling of the Sept. 11 attacks and the U.S.-led wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The DLP is also critical of the U.S. war in Iraq and opposes Korea's plan to send an additional 3,000 troops to the war-ravaged country.
Lee Mario, a 34-year-old documentary director, said it was nonsense to send troops to Iraq. 'It was an extraordinary film,' he said of the Moore documentary. 'Throughout theaters, people shall get a chance to understand the ugly truth behind the war and everything.' "
