Bowling for Columbine : a movie about the murder of pupils by their peers at Columbine High School a few years ago. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Bowling for Columbine is a documentary film written, directed, produced by and starring Michael Moore. It won numerous awards, including an Academy Award for Best Documentary Features, the César Award for Best Foreign Film.[1] It received praise as well as criticism for its genre and claims. The film opened on October 11, 2002, and it brought Moore international attention.If anyone uses this material, or has more ideas, I'd be happy to hear about it.
