To promote his film "Capitalism: A Love Story"--available for the first time on Blu-ray and DVD today--Michael Moore sat down in front of a computer to have a series of Skype one-on-one interviews with journalists. And DVD Town was first in line.

Moore, of course, is the activist documentary filmmaker who won an Oscar for "Bowling for Columbine" (2002). More recently he caused a stir when the U.S. Government learned that during the filming of his Oscar-nominated "Sicko" (2007), Moore went to Cuba without permission. But Moore and the U.S. Government haven't exactly been exchanging Christmas cards over the years. He riled more than a few people with "Fahrenheit 9/11" (2004), which, like "Columbine," won the Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival. With "Capitalism: A Love Story," he returns to the anti-corporate theme that he explored in the film that first catapulted him to fame: "Roger & Me," the 1989 documentary in which he dogged General Motors CEO Roger B. Smith for answers after GM closed its factories in Flint, Michigan and opened new ones in Mexico, where the labor was cheaper.

To sit in front of my computer and see Moore in front of his--that was the blessing of technology. The curse was that my computer microphone was malfunctioning and I had to ask my questions via telephone. But thanks to DVD Town editor-in-chief Henning Molbaek, who added the questions, the interview flows just fine. We hope you like it.
