Reviews, ruminations, ramblings, and reminisces about the movies. New for 2020 - The Year in Movies. Every few days I will post about a year in movie history and then post my favorite movie from that year.

250. Bowling for Columbine (2002)
I have only five words for you: FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS!
Probably the most entertaining documentary of all time, while at the same time being about one of the most important issues of our time. Whether you love or hate Michael Moore, you have to admit, he can make a doggone good film. I happen to see eye-to-eye on Mr. Moore's views, so works doubly well for me. What makes his movies unique is that even though he is painting the picture that he wants the viewer to see, his canvas and media are extremely broad. He interviews Marilyn Manson, Charlton Heston, John Nichols (Oklahoma City bomber Terry Nichols' brother), Dick Clark, and many everyday people. If you are at all curious why the United States leads the developed world (by a HUGE amount) in gun violence, then check this film out immediately.
