Film students interview Morgan Spurlock, executive producer and host of the FX series 30 Days.
Academy Award® nominated director Morgan Spurlock is the creator and executive producer of FX's critically acclaimed award winning series "30 Days". Spurlock has an amazing career spanning film, non-fiction literature, television and theatre.
His first feature film "Super Size Me", was released in 2004 and became the sixth highest grossing documentary of all time. This comedic and telling documentary, centering on Spurlock's experiment to eat only fast food for a month, was named to more than 35 critics' "Top Ten" lists in 2004 and received an Oscar(r) nomination, the Writer's Guild of America Best Documentary Screenplay Award and Best Director prizes at the Sundance Film Festival and Edinburgh Film Festival.
In July 2005, the first season of "30 Days" premiered on FX. The thought provoking weekly series has been praised by critics and honored by such diverse groups as the Muslim Public Affairs Council, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation and the Sargent Shriver National Center on Poverty Law. |
