VIDEO: Morgan Spurlock Admits New Film 'is All About Corruption' -- His Own

The 2011 Sundance Film Festival might be winding down with a flurry of sales, but one guy got that part out of the way early: Morgan Spurlock, whose documentary about the omnipresence of product placement, cheekily titled POM Wonderful Presents: The Greatest Movie Ever Sold, landed a distribution deal with Sony Pictures Classics last week before the festival began. That freed up the Super Size Me filmmaker to chat with Movieline's Elvis Mitchell about his special brand of "cotton-candy flavored spinach," selling out with style, and that time he turned down remaking Revenge of the Nerds.
