Bowling for Columbine, analyse af Michael Moores film

In the United States, it is very common to have one – or more – firearms. It's even legal for virtually anyone who wants to have a weapon to protect them selves and their property ("House and Castle" cf. 2nd. Amendment), to own a firearm. This weapons policy has probably resulted in a greater act of violence with firearms even at schools where student go tantrum on comrades. It is this perception the filmmaker Michael Moore of American society, which he expresses in the documentary "Bowling for Columbine", where he must note above and expresses a sharp criticism of the authorities, as well as lobby business NRA with Actor Charlton Heston in the lead. The film belongs to the political documentary genre and puts, short, Americans ' attitudes toward weapons as well as their way of dealing with the problem at the tip. Moore uses images and clipping, black/white and colour, linguistic instruments as well as irony bordering on sarcasm to select its own – relatively subjective – views. Michael Moore's subjectivity is forcing the Viewer to take a position on the arms issue in the United States. The film's attitudes have been vigorously debated, because it may exceed the limit of how biased you can be in a documentary work, but nevertheless won the movie 1st award at the prestigious Cannes film festival.
