The words "health care" and "comedy" aren't usually found in the same sentence, but in Academy Award winning filmmaker Michael Moore's new movie 'SiCKO,' they go together hand in (rubber) glove.

The movie profiles several ordinary Americans whose lives have been disrupted, shattered, and in some cases ended by health care catastrophe, the film makes clear that the crisis doesn't only affect the 47 million uninsured citizens' millions of others who dutifully pay their premiums often get strangled by bureaucratic red tape as well.

There are nearly 50 million Americans without health insurance.

18,000 Americans will die this year simply because they're uninsured.

The United States is ranked #37 as a health system by the World Health Organization.

There are four times as many health care lobbyists as there are members of Congress

'SiCKO' uses humor to tell these compelling stories, leading the audience to conclude that an alternative system is the only possible answer.
