Fatso (1980)

Fatso, written and directed by Anne Bancroft, got poor reviews on its release in 1980, but it deserves better. A tender story about an overweight man who finds love, it also hilariously takes advantage of the superb acting and physical talents of its star, Dom DeLuise. Bancroft excels in a manic supporting role, and Ron Carey is a perfect foil as DeLuise's brother, Junior. No one who has seen the film is likely to forget the line, "Get the honey, Junior," and the madcap scene it kicks off.
