Fast Food Nation
Based on Eric Schlosser's best-selling, and comical, expose of America's fast food industry, this film revolves around a small meat-processing town and fictitious fast food giant, Mickey's, as they investigate claims their meat is contaminated with faecal matter. Director Richard Linklater co-wrote the script with Schlosser, and assembled a fine ensemble cast that includes Greg Kinnear, Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke, Kris Kristofferson, Luis Guzman and many more, to tell this wryly terrifying tale of corporate deception.
