Description
Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock embarks on a journey to find out if fast food is making Americans fat. For 30 days he can't eat or drink anything that isn't on McDonald's menu; he must eat three square meals a day, he must eat everything on the menu at least once and supersize his meal if asked. He treks across the country interviewing a host of experts on fast food and a number of regular folk while downing McDonald's to try and find out why 37% of American are now overweight. Spurlock's grueling show more diet spirals him into a metamorphosis that will make you think twice about picking up another Big Mac. show lessTags

The Last Supper: Simple green salad, simply salad.
Скандaльное докумeнтальнoе рaсследoваниe o рoли сети рeстoранов быстрогo питания "МакДональдс" в ожирeнии амeриканцев. Режиссер Морган Сперлок поставил эксперимент на себе: в течение месяца он три раза в день ел в "МакДональдсе". Причем, исключительно популярные порции "Supеrsizе" (двойная порция). В результате Морган набрал 12 кг, его холестерин подскочил до небес, у него начала болеть печень, появились головные show more боли, депрессия, исчезло сексуальное влечение. В качестве реакции на фильм, который стал хитом в США, "МакДональдс" объявил о решении до конца 2004 года снять с производства и продажи в своих отделениях в США порции "Supеrsizе" – торговый символ сети. show less
