FOOD INC., now showing at the Drexel, is a genuine must-see tour de force.  Featuring primarily food author/activists Michael Pollan and
Eric Schlosser, this lengthy but very watchable documentary gem lays out the horrific crisis America faces in feeding itself---or rather, in being
force-fed by corporate evil-doers.  The agri-rape and pillage of Monsanto and its unholy host of boardroom buccaneers has made a mess of
our food production and distribution system.  If you can face the ravages of the mass meat industry without becoming a vegetarian, you are
ready for a job as Dick Cheney's private chef.  Despite its pithy topic, the film never lapses into jargon.  Nor does lose its pace or punch.
Grounded with excellent appearances by regular down-home farmers and true mainstream folk, this is a march to where we all
live and eat. Lets hope it has an impact.  Thanks to Jeff & Cathy Frank for bringing---and keeping---it here.  Bring the kids.  They'll never drag
you to McDonald's again!!
