Michael Moore takes part in a live Q&A about his latest movie Trumpland Friday at The Frida Cinema.
But the provocateur filmmaker will not be in Santa Ana.
(Near as I can tell, neither will Donald Trump.)
Instead, Moore appears via live Skype video after Trumpland rolls at 7:30 p.m.
The documentary opened at Frida on Oct. 26 and it had been scheduled to end its local run today.
Here's how Frida describes it:
The surprise theatrical release that stormed New York's IFC Center (landing the cinema its Wednesday opening day box office record!), Michael Moore in TrumpLand dives deep in the heart of hostile “TrumpLand” territory with his daring, profound, and uproarious one-man show. Performed, shot, and edited just weeks before the 2016 election, this heartfelt, honest, and hilarious concert film is essential election viewing for a divided America: entertaining, outraging, and informing in equal measure.
Moore's new film is not the raging Trump trash-talk take-down you might expect from the provocateur… In analyzing the effect Trump and his presidential run has had on our country, the film empathizes with – and has resonated with – a broad spectrum of Americans.
The director of Bowling for Columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11 and Roger and Me is scheduled to call in and take questions from the Santa Ana audience. How cool is that?
