    Michael Moore is a progressive at best, but some of his movies are good for people who aren't very political or who otherwise wouldn't be exposed to the views expressed in his documentaries.

    I'd rank his top three works as:

    1. The Awful Truth (late 90s/early 2000s TV show)
    2. Roger and Me
    3. Capitalism: A Love Story

    I wouldn't bother at all with Fahrenheit 9/11.
