Movie Reviews of Fatso
Movie Review: yikes!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Movie:
Fatso!
My review is brief; the film is a funny and sensitive, Black Comedic, satirical, Romantic, love story, focused on Italian America culture and food.
The cast is mostly Italian, including the director. Dom Deluise is incredible and the Food Junky Splurge scene is at the same time both hilarious and sad. So if you are Italian American, or of any ethnic group which appreciates the food, the culture and humor of same, this is a hilarious and yet poignantly, sensitive, ethnic film classic.
Ann Bancroft, is an Italian American, actor/director and is also related to the late, great, Oak Park Illinois architect; Frank Lloyd Wright.
Summary of Fatso
From the day he was born, food has always been the ultimate comfort for middle-aged bachelor Dominick DiNapoli (Dom DeLuise). But when his obese cousin Sal dies at 39, Dom must finally come to terms with his own weight problem. From quack doctors and harsh diets to his overbearing Italian family and a fanatical support group called 'The Chubby Checkers', nothing can come between a man and his manicotti. Could a new love with a neighborhood woman (Candice Azzara of EASY MONEY) finally curb Dominick's out-of-control appetite or will self-doubt eat away at his last chance for happiness? Ron Carey (HIGH ANXIETY) and Estelle Reiner (WHEN HARRY MET SALLY) co-star in this bittersweet yet delicious comedy written and directed by Anne Bancroft (winner of the 1962 Academy Award? for Best Actress, THE MIRACLE WORKER).Comedy DVD Video
