First time filmmaker hires Morgan Spurlock and Michael Moore’s key crew

An Australian first time feature filmmaker has hired top American talent to help create his documentary film.

Director Joe Cross employed talent from Michael Moore and Morgan Spurlock’s teams to realise his documentary Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead.

The film is the opposite to Morgan Spurlock’s Supersize Me. Cross embarked on a road trip across the USA with a cameraman, sound guy and a juicer to eat and drink only fruit and vegetables to lose weight, while discovering why people were addicted to fast food.

The film was produced by Stacey Offman, who produced Morgan Spurlock’s Where in the World is Osama Bin Laden.
