    Michael Moore to Release Slacker Uprising For Free

    Fri, 05 Sep 2008 11:50:25

    And online!


    Documentarian Michael Moore has announced that he will release his next film, Slacker Uprising, online and for free. The film documents the director's 62-city tour during the 2004 Presidential election, where Moore put forth a valiant effort to try and rally young voters to support and vote for then-Democratic candidate John Kerry.

    Moore said that he is releasing the film as a way to celebrate his 20th year of filmmaking and to stir up more support for the Democratic party for this November's election. The download of Slacker Uprising will be hosted at blip.tv and will be of high resolution and good, viewable quality. Those interested in receiving the download can sign up at www.slackeruprising.com. The DVD version of the film is slated for release on October 7.
