Eisner and Me

Posted by PWalker

Michael Moore’s “Fahrenheit 9/11” topped $100M at the box office this weekend. Which according to The Washington Post puts it at number 273 all time. It’s reported that the film cost only $6M to make, which means a lot of profits lost by Disney. How does Michael Eisner feel about it? According to Reuters:

Moore seized on a remark by Walt Disney Co. CEO Michael Eisner, who said earlier this month of the film: “I thought it was like going to a rock concert. I loved it but not in a political (sense).” Although Eisner refused to allow his company’s Miramax Films unit to distribute the movie, Moore pointed out that it has now grossed more than any Disney film this year.
