When an Italian journalist complained that the film had "only one point of view," juror Tilda Swinton, an actress from Scotland, replied "We've heard what Bush has to say. We live with it. It's not a fair fight. This film helps to redress the balance." And juror Edwidge Danticat, a Haitian-born American novelist, said, "Moore starts by saying this is his view of the world. He gives voice to people who are voiceless."

Well that's a relief. They picked the film for its merits and not for its political content. Why would they lie?
