NYT

"Fahrenheit 9/11," a scathing indictment of White House actions after the Sept. 11 attacks created by the American filmmaker Michael Moore, won the top prize on Saturday at the Cannes Film Festival.

It was the first documentary to win Cannes' highest prize, the Palme d'Or, since "The Silent World" by Jacques Cousteau in 1956.
