Moore is in the line of Clint's ire
Clint Eastwood squinted like Dirty Harry Tuesday night as he took aim at Michael Moore. "Michael Moore and I actually have a lot in common - we both appreciate living in a country where there's free expression," Eastwood told the star-dotted crowd attending the National Board of Review awards dinner at Tavern on the Green, where Eastwood picked up a Special Filmmaking Achievement prize for "Million Dollar Baby."
Then, the Republican-leaning actor/director advised the lefty filmmaker: "But, Michael, if you ever show up at my front door with a camera - I'll kill you."
The audience erupted in laughter, and Eastwood grinned dangerously.
"I mean it," he added, provoking more guffaws.
Sitting well out of range at a table in back, Moore - who received a special "Freedom of Expression" award for his anti-Bush polemic "Fahrenheit 9/11" - chuckled.
What a difference from last summer, when Moore's supporters complained that death threats were arriving almost daily and the director showed up at the Democratic Convention with a security detail.
Back then, Moore was outraged when CNN anchor Bill Hemmer suggested during an interview that some folks might want to see him dead.
"Can you think of any other interview in the history of television where a politician or a movie director was asked about people wanting to see him dead?" Moore seethed to me at the time.
But, in this case, Moore's rep told me yesterday: "Michael laughed along with everyone else, and took Mr. Eastwood's comments in the lighthearted spirit in which they were given."
Phew.
Wow -- that is one Michael Moore film that I would love to see.
"I mean it," he added...
Tell him, "Make my day". :D
Clint would need an elephant gun handy when MM showed up!
Clint's best acting tip: Don't just do something, stand there.
(Warning: this only works if you're Clint Eastwood)
HAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
-good one ;)
Hey M.Moore has been working out for years. Lifting all those 1/4 pounders must have given his arm a workout.
"Well Michael, do you feel lucky?"
..that and 'working out' scams to defraud movie-goers with so called heavily slanted and hack edited documentaries....
who the HELL thought having a click-click Internet Poll (spanked by DUmmies) to give the Peoples Choice Award to this fat tard-boy fraud is beyond laughable..
Hey they have a New catagorey just for Michael Morre Movies. It's called the Mock-u-Mentaries. not documentaries. He's such a joke, and why he can't understand that he wasn't a HELp to Democrats but a BIG FAT Hindrance. I hope he keeps up doing what he is doing. Eveentually the World too will se him for what he is, a propagandists that is bent on self-serving ,money making opportunites.
Shouldn't that Theme be:
"The Good, the Bad and the PUDGY" ?
Or,The good,the bad and the FUKLY.
Naw! I'm pretty sure if you just "showed" SpongeMIkePoopiePants a .22, he would wilt like yesterdays lettuce and soil his depends. I seriously doubt courage and bravery will ever be associated with this worm. I don't even know how he remains up-right, since you need a spine to do that.
