Super Size Me dokumenttielokuva - McDonald's - Morgan Spurlock - Super Size Me - syöpä

McDonald'sin paljastava dokumenttielokuva keräsi palkintoja ja nyt ohjaaja on poissa.

Morgan Spurlock, dokumenttielokuvien tekijä ja tunnettu McDonald'sin kritisoija, joka tunnetaan parhaiten elokuvasta 'Super Size Me', on menehtynyt syöpään 53-vuotiaana. Hänen perheensä ilmoitti suru-uutisesta torstaina.

Spurlock oli kuuluisa siitä, että hän eli yhden kuukauden ajan pelkästään McDonald'sin ruoalla vuonna 2004 valmistuneen elokuvan nimeltä 'Super Size Me' vuoksi. Elokuva herätti laajaa keskustelua yhdysvaltalaisesta ruokakulttuurista ja sai Spurlockille jopa Oscar-ehdokkuuden.

Hänen dokumenttielokuvansa keräsivät useita palkintoja ja tunnustusta, joka vaikutti syvästi katsojiin ja herätti kysymyksiä terveellisestä ruokavaliosta. Spurlockin työ jätti pysyvän jäljen elokuvamaailmaan ja ruokateollisuuden kriittiseen tarkasteluun.

Morgan Spurlockin poismeno on suuri menetys elokuvamaailmalle ja ruoka-alan keskustelulle. Hänen rohkeat teot ja vaikuttavat elokuvansa jäävät muistoksi tärkeänä kohokohtana dokumenttielokuvien historiassa.
