Stars&Stripes: Fahrenheit 9/11 DVD sold out

Not shown in base theaters, Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 arrives on DVD

By Nancy Montgomery, Stars and Stripes
Pacific edition, Sunday, October 10, 2004

YOKOSUKA NAVAL BASE, Japan — The highest-grossing documentary in movie history, winner at the Cannes Film Festival, hailed in Boston but banned in Kuwait, “Fahrenheit 9/11” never made it to Yokosuka Naval Base theaters — or to any movie theater located on a military base.

But the DVD version of Michael Moore’s cinematic indictment of the current commander-in-chief and his administration came in the doors at the base video store this week — and went right out again.

Employees of the store, operated by Softland Video, said all 22 copies it received Tuesday were checked out that day, and when they came back, they went out again. The movie was available for home viewing last week at most overseas military bases."
