Pirated ‘Sicko’ surfaces on YouTube: Moviegoers interested in seeing Michael Moore’s US health-care expose, ‘Sicko’, could find it easily on YouTube this weekend. Two weeks before its June 29 opening, a 124-minute version of the film was available on the popular website, posted by at least two users in 14 consecutive video chunks. (The film clocked in at 113 minutes when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival.) The YouTube appearance comes on the heels of a fairly high-quality pirated version available via BitTorrent file-sharing software and peerto-peer websites last week, first reported by Advertising Age on Friday.
