The Awful Truth: The Complete Series & The Best of the Awful Truth [$39.95 / $14.95]
Everyman Michael Moore is well known for his at times comically, at times painfully blunt approach to the gawdawful truth of life as it is in the US for the average person. Indeed, Moore is among our most astute cultural/political critics, in the non-academic sense, of course. The fat cats who keep the rest of us underfoot are no match for the Big Man and his team in this TV series—when he can corner them. He gets a lot closer to them than the average Joe, even makes them squirm, at times, and that’s damned cathartic to watch. The Emmy nominated show, captured here in the Entire Series and Best of DVDs, make an ideal gift for anybody you know who feels their tax money is misdirected, and their lives and the lives of others, undervalued.
