Fast Food Nation Movie
Coming to this year's Cannes film festival and to a theater near you later this year is a fictionalized film adaptation of Eric Schlosser's Fast Food Nation. The movie -- directed by Richard Linklater and shot in Mexico, Texas, and Colorado -- will be the motion picture acting debut of Canadian pop singer Avril Lavigne.
According to Linklater, "The idea that came out of our meetings was that the movie would not be a documentary but a character study of the lives behind the facts and figures. I'm more interested in fiction than nonfiction. You get to the point through human storytelling."

just watched Fast Food Nation, it's an impactful flick to say the least... earlier today i passed up a sausage mcmuffin because of it. Evidently it is worth passing up fast food for more than health reasons.
