Tepid response to Moore - Film - www.theage.com.au: "Michael Moore's controversial documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 received a mostly positive response at low key premieres held around the country last night.
Attended by politicians, bureaucrats and members of Australia's arts community, premieres were held in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Canberra.
A Melbourne premiere will be held tonight.
Retiring Labor MP Laurie Brereton said after attending the Sydney premiere he thought it was one of the most powerful anti-war movies he had seen.
'Michael Moore is answering one of the great propaganda campaigns of all time, to justify a war that turned out to have been fought on the basis of a lie about weapons of mass destruction,' Mr Brereton said.
But NSW Upper House MP and One Nation co-founder David Oldfield was not so positive about the film.
'I think that Michael Moore is very good at preying on the prejudices of the bleeding hearts and I don't think there is any skill in making war look terrible,' Mr Oldfield said.
'It is propaganda against America really in many senses and I don't think that it is very helpful towards the troops that are in Iraq, be they Australian or American.' "
