An overweight bachelor is fat, 40 and fed up--to the gills--but when his obese cousin Sal dies at 39, he must finally come to terms with his own weight problem.
This is tagged as a comedy, but it's fairly depressing and annoying for the most part, particularly any scene Anne Bancroft is a part of. Coming from the same nationality as the main character, I relate to the ridiculous value stuffing your face plays in Italian culture. There is a lot of shouting, and you just see a character struggling with trying to stop eating, surrounded by a surreal fairy-tale-like love at first sight romance.
