When will we be seeing it? Is it even coming? I remember hearing about it a while back - then nothing.

(7,809 posts)I watched it a few nights ago, along with Who to Invade Next.
I almost started a thread on it, but I was too depressed at what could be.
If you have Netflix or Amazon Prime, you could check to see if it's there. Otherwise you would have to resort to the internet or a Kodi box*.
* Google it. Then get one.

(3,827 posts)A Weinstein source says there was a robust turnout for the Moore film presentation in Cannes, with more than 100 buyers on hand.
Michael Moore and Harvey Weinstein unveiled footage from Fahrenheit 11/9 at a buyers-only presentation Friday evening at the Hotel Martinez in Cannes.
But after the two-hour presentation with Weinstein and brother Bob on hand and Moore appearing via Skype potential distributors were left with more questions than answers.
Ahead of the presentation, targeted distributors said they expect that the film would be released on Nov. 9, marking the one-year anniversary of the morning Donald Trump was pronounced president-elect. But that means 11/9 will face off at the box office against an equally splashy Trump doc titled 11/8/16 that features a group of contributors including Lena Dunham. Sources say that film, which also features such directors as David Lowery and Eugene Jarecki, will be released by The Orchard one day before on Nov. 8.
But Moore told buyers he is aiming for a summer 2017 release, though some questioned whether it's possible to pull off before fall.
Nearly every buyer The Hollywood Reporter polled ahead of the Martinez presentation said they plannned to skip the event, an ominous sign for the films market potential (the press was disinvited at the last minute). Hamish Moseley, head of distribution at Altitude, which distributed Amy in the U.K., said he couldnt make it but added, "You can't ignore Michael Moore." Dogwoof, one of the premiere doc distributors in the territory, didn't even know about it when first reached by THR, but subsequently attended and expressed interest in a follow-up meeting about the film. In the end there was a robust turnout for the Moore film presentation, according to a Weinstein source, with more than 100 key buyers on hand.
