Moore is going to be a judge at Cannes where his film will receive accolades. There's a big international audience for it, if worse comes to worse he can go straight to DVD in the US.

Though I think an independent distributer will pick it up, Newmarket or another, and get it into 1000-1500 theaters here in the US.

With a production budget of $6m it will be very profitable.

The movie is finished, but the distributor remains to be determined. Jeb Bush has exercised his clout over Disney World to intimidate Disney into backing down. But they will hand off the film to someone else who will make a killing on it.

This is the first film which shows the Bush-Saudi-Bin lauden connections and the White House is terrified of it.
