Moore film is to get its world premier in Cannes
The White House tried to halt the making and release of Michael Moore's new film Fahrenheit 9/11, the film-maker alleged in Cannes on Sunday.
The director told a Cannes audience the Bush administration wanted to keep the film off screens in the run-up to November's US election.
The film examines the Iraq war and alleges connections between the Bush and Bin Laden families. -----------------
Fahrenheit 9/11 is to get its world premiere in Cannes on Monday.
Film studio Disney had backed out of a deal to distribute the film in the US for political reasons, Moore says.
