Revisit Morgan Spurlock’s Oscar-Nominated ‘Super Size Me’ Documentary Where He Ate McDonald’s Every Day For a Month
Following Morgan Spurlock's death, revisit the filmmaker's Oscar-nominated 'Super Size Me' doc, where he ate McDonald's every day for a month.
Spurlock, who captured his own psychological and physical symptoms from eating McDonald’s every day for a month in the 2004 feature film, died on Thursday morning due to complications from cancer at the age of 53. “Super Size Me” captured the zeitgeist when it released in 2004, grossing $22 million at the global box office and sparking a conversation about how the fast food industry encourage poor nutrition among the general public. Though the doc is still utilized as an educational aide in some school health classes, it has also sparked debate over its accuracy in the years since, with some criticism citing Spurlock refusing to publicly share his diet log from filming.
