First film from documentarian Morgan Spurlock, Best Director (Documentary) winner at Sundance and nominated for Best Documentary at the 2005 Oscars. In the film, Spurlock subjects himself to a stomach-tightening diet: solely eating food from McDonalds three times a day for 30 days without exercising. As his physical and mental well-being deteriorates, he tours America examining the causes of his nation's ever-expanding gut.
