《快餐帝国》美国人饮食的阴暗面
分类: 影视英语
改编自同名小说的影片《快餐帝国》，探索了“美国人饮食的阴暗面”。这部影片不是一部纪录片，而是一个通过数字和事实所做的研究。著名的小红星艾薇尔在这部电影里首次“触电”。
This Friday, November 17, Eric Schlosser's best-seller, "Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal," hits the big screen. The film takes audiences on a tour of the real ingredients in American fast food, and none of them are beef.
"Fast Food Nation" wasn't designed to make consumers feel good about indulging in the occasional Big Mac. On the contrary -- critics claim this film has the potential to change the fast food industry .
Like the book, "Fast Food Nation" focuses on the human elements of America's quest for immediate gratification and transfat. many say the movie's social commentary has the potential to quell the exploitation of illegal workers who fuel the fast food industry.
Their struggles are portrayed by a young immigrant couple who come to America in classic Upton Sinclair “The Jungle” fashion -- full of hopes and dreams that crumble when the couple meets with horrific working conditions in a meat-packing plant.
