Roger_&_Me

Roger & Me Roger & Me This film is billed as a comedy however the life stressors of unemployment are not funny in the true comedic sense at all unless laughter is used instead of crying as a sort of defense mechanism. If any thing Roger & Me is such an extremely dark comedy, you need a microscope to find the humor. This story shows Michael Moore a Flint Michigan native who is looking for Roger Smith the CEO of General Motors after GM closes 11 plants in Flint and lays off more then 33,000 workers. This story shows the affects that the closing of the Eleven plants has on Flint Michigan’s economy as well as the effects on the laid off workers. One such a layoff of this magnitude in a community has a very detrimental affect on every aspect of life in the community as well as the individual. It is as if every thing needs a big antidepressant. I suppose in the film Pat Boone and Anita Bryant were suppose to be the big pill to pull them out of the black hole.
