26. SOUNDBITE (English) Michael Moore, Director and Palme d'Or winner:
"I believe that Americans, when they no the truth, will do the right thing and hope my film, in small way, helps to educate them to what the truth is. (Q: How do you think it will affect the campaign, the political campaign, in America?) I have no idea, as I stand here what kind of impact it will have. At the very least the 50 percent who no longer vote, who have given up, rethink that and perhaps don't give up, come back in, there is still a chance, it's still our country."

"It's absolutely stunning. It was such a selfless act.The nine people on this jury make their living doing fiction films and instead of honouring one of their own they honoured something that they do not do. It's a selfless, selfless act and it's a wonderful thing (Q: Last time you were here you gave us a hint that you were going to do this film. What are you going to be making next?) "I'm retiring after this. (Q: No, never, who's on the hit list?) I've got enough people after me now, I don't want to announce what I'm doing next year."
29. Cutaway Michael Moore
30. SOUNDBITE (English) Michael Moore, Director and Palme d'Or winner:
