Here is a pretty good movie on GMO foods. I like that they spend at least
some time interview independent scientists and discussing their research.
I could have done without the 3 minute intro at the start, though. But
I think it's worth the watch.

A lot of people want to label GMOs like is available in so many countries so
that they can protect themselves from these poisons. A simple solution
would be to consider it fraud to have a ingredients list that has that does
not disclose the identity of proprietary (including patented) product names.
So, if MON810, a patented, artificial product is an ingredient, it would be
fraud to call it something else if one chooses to label the food product.
Another example, if I grind up 3M Post-It Notes and put it in food under
the label "corn," that would be considered fraud even if I think my yellow
Post-It Notes are substantially equivalent to corn. So, rather than telling
concerned people that I'm against forced labeling, I tell them that if
ingredients are labeled at all, it should be considered fraud if patented
ingredients are hidden under another name.
I just noticed this interview which is related:
