Michael Moore, the man known for his controversial perspective on some of America's biggest and overlooked problems, is said to be thinking of ending his career as a documentarian.  Slashfilm.com reports that this year may just be the last year we see Moore's name plastered across the big screen with his upcoming work titled Capitalism: A Love Story, which debuts in theaters in October.

Moore claims: "I've been thinking that maybe this will be my last documentary...Or maybe for a while."  Instead, he has his mind on the world of narrative fictional feature films and has even been in the process of writing a few screenplays: "I have been working on two screenplays over the last couple of years.  One's a comedy, one's a mystery, and I really want to do this."

Moore previously has tried to make this transition in the past back in 1995 with Canadian Bacon, a fictional political comedy that documents what it would be like if a pseudo war was officiated between the U.S. and Canada in order to stimulate the economy.
