It has been widely rumored that Michael Moore had Warner Brothers pay rent (or buy homes) for the people who were evicted in Roger & Me.
This story is 100% true. Warner Brothers – for whatever reason – called it a marketing fee. As part of the sale of the movie, $25,000 was distributed to the evicted tenants so they could stay in their homes. (Adjusted for inflation, $25,000 in 1989 is $45,000 today!)
