Twelve days after the passing of Tony Bennett, Michael Moore shares his encounters with this truly great American. From the first time they met 33 years ago, to the times they often sat in attendance a grade school band concert, to Tony’s participation in the Selma March, his Bronze Star in the army in WWII for helping to liberate a Dachau concentration camp, to being there (along with Harry Belafonte) on the opening night of Mike’s Broadway show. For years, Tony was an accidental mentor to Mike and a source of wisdom on how to make it in this world. This is Michael Moore’s tribute to a good soul who meant a lot to many.
