MorÂgan SpurÂlockÂ’s 2004 docÂuÂmenÂtary, Super Size Me, is availÂable on YouTube for all to watch. Spend 30 days eatÂing nothÂing but McDonÂald’s fast food and what hapÂpens? It’s not pretÂty. But you’ll get the picÂture in an enterÂtainÂing 100 minÂutes. Super Size Me was nomÂiÂnatÂed for an AcadÂeÂmy Award, and won prizes at SunÂdance and elseÂwhere. Give it a watch. And note that you can now watch othÂer feaÂture-length films on YouTube here. You’ll find some good ones in the docÂuÂmenÂtary & biogÂraÂphy secÂtion.
I’ll defÂiÂniteÂly check out the docÂuÂmenÂtary & bio secÂtion of Youtube.
I’m a bit of a docÂuÂmenÂtary fan and am big user of Snag Films http://www.snagfilms.com/ to access full length films (includÂing Super Size Me).
Best,
