Morgan Spurlock, 'Super Size Me' Director, Dies at 53
Subtlety and grace were never Morgan Spurlock's style.
Almost two decades after his Oscar-nominated documentary "Super Size Me" thrust him into the spotlight, the filmmaker died Thursday at age 53 from complications from cancer.
Spurlock was a force of nature, a fearless provocateur who used his films to tackle some of society's most pressing issues, from obesity to gun violence to the dangers of social media.
He was also a gifted storyteller, with a knack for finding the humor and humanity in even the darkest of subjects.
Spurlock's death is a major loss for the world of documentary filmmaking. He was a true original, and his films will continue to inspire and challenge audiences for years to come.
