“Michael, we love you!”

Filmmaker Michael Moore is promoting his new movie “Capitalism: A Love Story” to the media at the Venice Film Festival.

He is stopped in his tracks when an Italian female reporter unfurls a banner bearing those adoring words.

Moore is getting good press in Italy, where his movie had its world premiere.

“Interessantissimo” (highly interesting), cheered the daily La Stampa, while Corriere della Sera gave it three stars out of four.

La Repubblica devoted whole pages to the Michigan-born director, and reported that he had a double serving of spaghetti al pomodoro sent up to his hotel room.
