Now Playing, Seven Moore Minutes
CUT TO:
GEORGE W. BUSH IN TUXEDO SPEAKING AT FUNDRAISER
BUSH: This is an impressive crowd. The "haves" and the "have mores." Some people call you the elite. I call you my base.
CUT TO:
MICHAEL MOORE IN AUDIENCE IN TUXEDO
MOORE (cheering): Have Moore! Have Moore!
CUT TO:
INTERIOR. BURGER KING -- CLOSE UP.
Michael Moore chewing, scruffy beard, sympathetic eyes.
NARRATOR (voice-over): But no matter how rich he gets -- still, to millions of his followers he's the working-class hero.
Music begins. John Lennon's "Working Class Hero," soulful vocals and acoustic guitar.
INTERIOR. BURGER KING.
Michael Moore chewing.
LENNON (voice-over): A working-class hero is something to be/ If you want to be a hero well just follow me.
Music ends. Michael Moore stops chewing, smiles.
NARRATOR (voice-over): What was he thinking? Was he happy to be sitting alone by himself? No television cameras blinding him. No newspaper reporters begging for a minute of his time. No radio interviews to be beamed around the world. How he shied from the limelight! How he hated the publicity game!
