Calvin Leslie (Film Forum Committee) writes about Bijou's upcoming screening of ROGER AND ME, playing February 25 at 6pm!

Michael Moore has always been a bit of a divisive documentarian. Many disagree with the performative aspects of his films, some say he’s too one-sided, and some qualify his films as editorials rather than documentaries.

Roger and Me was his first work to breach the public consciousness, and shot him to the forefront of non-fiction film. In other words, it’s an interesting movie from an odd filmmaker and deserves a watch.

Come discuss with us, February 25 at 6pm! Followed by a panel discussion!
