The Doctor Will See SiCKO In November

Michael Moore’s SiCKO is just a few weeks away from its DVD release. The documentary, which focuses on the health care industry and its shortcomings in America, hits DVD on November 6th with a ton of extras, including an additional 45 minutes of footage and deleted scenes. But is anyone going to buy it?

As cool as the DVD may be, the truth is Moore’s movie has been available for home viewing ever since it hit theaters. A “leak” spilled a perfect print of the movie online, making its way across the Internet through torrents and file sharing. So I have to wonder, if the people who wanted to get their hands on Moore’s movie already have it, will it hurt DVD sales of the movie?

I’ll save my opinion of the movie itself for the DVD review, but I’ll say I am interested to see some of the deleted scenes and expanded interviews. Take a look at what you’ll find on the disc:
