Film records effects of eating only McDonald's for a month

NEW YORK - Normally sane actors have been known to gain or lose huge amounts
of weight for their art. Think of Renee Zellweger in Bridget Jones's Diary.
Directors, of course, never have to undergo such torture. Or so it used to
be, until Morgan Spurlock had a bright idea for a film project.

The first clue to his particular misery comes in the title of his
documentary, which has become the darling of this year's Sundance Film
Festival. It is called Super Size Me: A Film of Epic Portions and it is a
sometimes comic but serious look at America's addiction to fast food.
