Blog Entry #7: Capitalism: A Love Story

Capitalism: an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state.

In the film Capitalism: A Love Story a film by Michael Moore, it really informed me about capitalism and how it works and how it affects the people of America. Michael Moore likes to get the truth to the people. He digs deep, he fights to get as much information as he can. In the film he includes many, many interviews as he possible can. He gets interviews from both sides of the story, the working class and the rich. It's interesting the way he shows his film, he is very serious and then he may add a scene that may make you laugh. The purpose of the film is to inform people about capitalism and how it affects everyone, it might be great for some but not so great for others. The audience of the film is the American people, especially the working class. The tone and the voice of the film is serious, but he does have some scenes where he may try to make you laugh. Over all the film did inform me about capitalism and it helped me understand it.
