It’s a crummy day for Michael Moore. What should have been a good morning has turned into a contentious one for the filmmaker.

His documentary, Capitalism: A Love Story is out on DVD, which means the flick could find a whole new audience via home entertainment. So what’s wrong?

Moore is being interviewed by radio jocks across the nation today, which has proved to be unnerving.

OK, so I caught him at a time when he probably should have taken a break, but thems are the breaks for both of us.

Capitalism: A Love Story hasn’t made near the money of let’s say, Fahrenheit 9/11 ($119,194,771), Bowling for Columbine ($21,576,018) or even Sicko (24,540,079), but it has done respectable numbers for a doc, roughly $14 mil domestically, $16 million worldwide, which Moore points out is on par with this year’s Best Picture winner, The Hurt Locker ($14 mil domestic, $21 worldwide). More important than money - the flick is his favorite.

The filmmaker was hoping to open up a dialog with this film and it did – positive and negative. Now he’s eager to keep the momentum going with the DVD release. One thing he’s not prepared to do is a dog and pony show to insure that happen. Moore will let the film, which has sparked anger in some, praise from others, speak for itself.
