TORONTO - Michael Moore says at one point he considered calling his new film "Manifesto."
It would have been a fitting title, given that his scathing attack on capitalism calls for nothing less than putting, in Moore's words, a "stake through the heart of the beast."
"Capitalism: A Love Story" examines the economic meltdown and subsequent bailout of Wall Street and calls on the audience to reject capitalism in favour of an economic system based on the ideals of democracy.
Moore, who is promoting the movie at the Toronto International Film Festival, says he's not against people making money from hard work and ideas.
Making money from money, however, is what rankles the filmmaker.
Moore says "Capitalism: A Love Story" is a culmination of all his work and adds he's been sounding the alarm since his first film, "Roger and Me," about the disastrous consequences for working people when excessive greed runs rampant under a capitalist system.
