The film has an all-star cast including Bruce Willis, Ethan Hawke, Patricia Arquette, Wilmer Valderrama, Yareli Arizmendi, Kris Kristofferson, Greg Kinnear, and more. Rather than filming it as a documentary, Linklater and Schlosser co-wrote the screenplay as a feature, weaving in the many disturbing facts from the book, Fast Food Nation, into the plot line through the experiences of fast food company executives, undocumented immigrant meat-packers, high-schoolers flipping burgers, and college activists. <\/p>\n<p>Fast Food Nation airs on Friday 11\/10\/2006 at at 7:30 PM at The Egyptian Theater (Rigler Theater), 6712 Hollywood Blvd in Hollywood. <\/p>\n<p>For more information about what you can do, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.participate.net\/fastfoodnation\">www.participate.net\/fastfoodnation<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Artivist Film Festival<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>GUEST: Diaky Diaz, Executive Director of Artivist Film Festival<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The Third Annual Artivist Film Festival and awards is taking place this November 9th through 12th at the Egyptian Theater, 6712 Hollywood Blvd in Hollywood.
