It’s time to put up an index post for the various food films I’ve come across or written about…

Real Food movie trailers & posts:

  • Fat Head – possibly my favorite of them all, because of its clear explanation of the saturated fat myth.
  • Julie & Julia – SUCH a cute movie!
  • Food, Inc. – read what I thought about the movie.  (The trailer gives me chills every time.)  Also, see this post the Truth about Food, Inc. – an interesting interview with Michael Pollan & the film maker.  One more – Jeanmarie wrote a great Food, Inc. movie review!
  • Food Fight – starring Michael Pollan & Alice Waters, so you know it’s good.
  • King Corn – is corn making us fat?
  • Food Matters – a powerful movie that will make you think!
  • The Meatrix movies – short films with a huge message.
  • The Future of Food – this movie will make you angry.
  • Fresh – an updated post.
  • See the french fry experiment from Supersize me on YouTube. Gross!
  • Note: I highly recommend the movie, “Supersize Me“, but BEWARE, there are two different versions: PG-13 and the PG/family friendly version!
  • Real Food Movie:  inGREEDients
  • Farmageddon Filmmaker, Kristin Canty – the Beginnings of Her Real Food Movement
  • American Meat – Is it possible to change the system?!
  • Edible City
  • “Farmed and Dangerous” – an Action-Packed and Hilarious Movie for Real Foodies
  • Edible City – Going Back to Simplicity and Self-Sufficiency and A Silent, Self-Administered Genocide for the Population

Read about a few good ones that I missed in the comments below!!!

    Hey Kelly, hope you don’t mind me adding in a few more to your list here. There’s some crossover in this post I did two years ago: https://ibelieveinbutter.wordpress.com/2010/07/07/real-food-on-the-big-screen/ with two additions–Flow and Dirt.

    I’ve got a NICE queue of food-related documentaries I want to watch on Netflix, and on instant too!

    Vin, thanks for the help… Sheree, hopefully if the others don’t have captions now, they will soon.
    Kate, I’ll have to check my library for that one, thanks!

    I’m jealous because I’m deaf and not able to understand these films. Do you know if any are captioned or have transcripts for me to read?

    Hi, I recently saw the preview (trailer) for The Greenhorns. It looks really inspriring along with the rest you have on your list. I have been eagerly trying to get copies of them as here in Australia we are unlikely to see them! 🙂

    I don’t have spyware problems, and I understand why you do it, but it does hurt us bloggers who spend hours working on our blogs and our measly ad dollars are all we get for it!

    I don’t see ads on this site, or many others. We have a scripts blocker (I think it’s noscripts.com) to prevent Spyware from getting into our computer. It has some downsides, but the advantage is that it blocks ads most of the time! I didn’t even know they were missing—-although there is a fair amount of white-space on some blogs!

    Thanks everyone for letting me know about the good ones I missed. I actually have Fathead on my list to rent or buy, can’t believe I forgot it.

    Sara, join the club!!! 🙂

    Julie, thanks for that tip, I added that movie to my list for summer movies to watch.

    Lucy, what blood ad are you talking about??? If you saw something gross or inappropriate in the Google ads on my site, PLEASE make note of the exact link and email me and I can block it out. I hope that someday I won’t need these Google ads on here at all!

    You can see The World According to Monsanto at the Millions Against Monsanto website (google: millions against monsanto). It’s unbelievable!

    The World According to Monsanto is intense and I recommend it highly. I certainly felt anger, frustration, and a little depression; but then, I felt an urgency to change things (even if just on a personal choices level).

    On a lighter note, there is a wonderful short called Fridays At The Farm. It’s a visual/personal essay by a father musing on family, food, and community. It’s a beautiful uplifting, peaceful piece.

    I’m still wanting to see Fresh, but without a local screening, I’m not sure how that will happen. 🙁

    “The World According to Monsanto” is supposed to be great (and depressing) as well.

    I agree with the recommendation for Fathead. It will also help answer the question that was raised a short while ago….. “What’s wrong with breakfast cereal?”. The morning after we watched Fathead, my husband came into the kitchen and said, “In light of what we watched last night, I think we’d better have eggs for breakfast.”
    Sally Fallon and Mary Enig are in this movie.

    i also found King Corn really interesting and eye-opening.

    Hey, thanks a lot for that True Blood ad, gross!
    You have overlooked a great DVD, the informative (featuring Mary Enig and Sally Fallon) and hilarious FATHEAD by the former comedian and health writer, Tom Naughton. Available through KDL here in West MI. While it does take some well deserved shots at the “stretches” in Super-size Me, it hits a home run on WAPFish, low-carb way to weight loss and the true cause of atherosclerosis. Thumbs up! Check it out!

    This is no documentary, but a lovely foodies film made back in 1986-a danish film called “Babette’s Feast”. It’s a delight and if you need a break from this harsh, coarse, critical world, see this film.

    I loved Supersize Me, but didn’t know they’d finally come out with a PG version. I want the kids to watch that. I’ve seen King Corn (available on Netflix and Netflix streaming) and wrote a post about it. I’ve seen the Meatrix movies and made them required viewing for my teens. I’m still trying to find the rest of your list. I’m so thankful that documentarians are on board and that Michael Pollan is so articulate!

    I’ve seen the Meatrix, so I’m understandably afraid to watch the others! But at least now I’m buying raw milk, pastured eggs, and we just ordered 1/3 of a grass-fed cow. I’m looking forward to that!

    We still have a long way to go, though. The kids think I’m nuts.
