The most successful documentary - ever

Amazing!! Michael Moore's anti-Bush "Fahrenheit 9/11" became the highest-grossing documentary of all time on its first weekend in release, taking in $21.8 million as it packed theaters across the United States and Canada this weekend. It earned more in its first three days of release than his previous record-breaking movie "Bowling for Columbine" did in its entire run. The great news: it's a movie which apparently appeals to everybody. According to the distribution company, "Fahrenheit 9/11" played strongly in big cities and small towns, in Democrat and Republican states, Theater owners in large cities and smaller towns reported sellout crowds over the weekend, with numerous theaters declaring house records.
