Fahrenheit' gets free screenings (Rosebud in Wauwatosa)

[Robbien]

Thanks to anonymous donors, the Rosebud Cinema Drafthouse will have two free showings this Friday of "Fahrenheit 9/11," Michael Moore's controversial, documentary-like film about President Bush and the war in Iraq.

According to theater manager Peter Mueller, the screenings are being sponsored by "a couple that wishes to remain anonymous." The couple asked that their identity be withheld, Mueller said in an e-mail, because "they feel the emphasis of this should be on the viewing and discussion" of the film and "they don't want to take anything away from that."

Tickets for the 7 p.m. show at the Rosebud, 6823 W. North Ave., Wauwatosa, will become available at 6:15 p.m.; tickets for the 9:45 p.m. show will become available at 9:10 p.m. There is seating for about 175 people at each show.
