4.0. What is Pets Or Meat: The Return To Flint? Michael Moore
It is the 1992 follow-up to Moore's documentary Roger & Me
that explores the community of Flint two years later. Interviews
with Ben Hemper, the Rabbit Lady and others are included, along
with a couple of glimpses into Moore's post-ROGER AND ME success
and segments from various talk shows.
PETS OR MEAT was shot on Hi-8 and is 24 minutes in length.
It was also featured with two other shorts edited together in
a film titled TWO MIKES DON'T MAKE A WRIGHT, that had a brief
theatrical run.
