It may be more difficult to see Michael Moore’s next documentary, and not because movie theaters are closed to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus. A group of environmentalists — leftists — pressured Moore’s distributor into dropping the film, leaving the documentary, which focuses on the environmental movement, in limbo.

Moore debuted his film online on Earth Day as a way of paying homage to his first film, a short documentary about pollution in his home town of Flint, Michigan, Moore made when he was in high school. “Planet of the Humans,” is supposed to be a natural extension of Moore’s first movie, showing how little the environmental situation has improved in the fifty years since “Pollution in My Hometown” premiered.
