Michael Moore's Oscar Acceptance Speech
ACCEPTANCE SPEECH Whoa. On behalf of our producers Kathleen Glynn and
Michael Donovan from Canada, I'd like to thank the Academy for this. I
have invited my fellow documentary nominees on the stage with us, and
we would like to ? they're here in solidarity with me because we like
nonfiction. We like nonfiction and we live in fictitious times. We
live in the time where we have fictitious election results that elects
a fictitious president. We live in a time where we have a man sending
us to war for fictitious reasons. Whether it's the fictition of duct
tape or fictition of orange alerts we are against this war, Mr. Bush.
Shame on you, Mr. Bush, shame on you. And any time you got the Pope
and the Dixie Chicks against you, your time is up. Thank you very > much.
