- Fatso is a 1980 American comedy film written and directed by Anne Bancroft and starring Dom DeLuise, Ron Carey and Candice Azzara.
As the DiNapoli siblings -- Antoinette (Bancroft), Dominic (DeLuise), and Frank Jr. (Carey) - are growing up, whenever young Dom became upset by something, the one thing his mother did to comfort him was to feed him. This included giving him a cannoli after being urinated on by his baby brother as he's being changed. Because of this, Dom grew up with a love of food, a trait shared by his equally obese cousin, Salvatore (Sal).
When Sal suddenly dies at age 39, the family grieves. This prompts Antoinette to urge Dom to visit a diet doctor to avoid his cousin's unhealthy eating habits and not drive himself into an early grave as well. Dom agrees to do so once he recognizes signs that obesity is ruining his health. Dom is heartbroken when given his new diet plan, seeing the long list of things he can no longer eat. When the diet fails, Dom's eating habits drive his sister crazy, so she enlists him in the "Chubby Checkers" support group.
Meanwhile, Dom meets Lydia (Azzarra), who owns the town antique shop, and finds they have a lot in common. But being self-conscious about his weight, he fears rejection, and can't bring himself to ask her out.
Now further depressed, Dom seeks comfort from his Chubby Checkers -- Sonny and Oscar (Richard Karron and Paul Zegler) -- who turn out to be of little help, as their reminiscing about favorite desserts and dishes drives them to having a pig-out party in the kitchen. To help their brother, Antoinette and Frankie bring together Dom and Lydia. While dating, Dom doesn't realize that he has been eating less and less, and is shocked to discover at how loosely his clothes fit in a matter of weeks.
The film critic Peter Wu described the film as "A very humorous and yet serious movie about obesity," going on to write: "Maybe being overweight isn't the best thing for a person's health, but being one's self and being happy is all that really matters in life ... With a delightful blend of New York Italian culture and the human problem of overeating, Fatso makes for an entertaining movie experience. Loaded with some of the funniest comedy gags I have ever seen, Fatso is a very humorous and yet serious movie about a very touchy subject, Dom DeLuise!"
This film was also reviewed in the psychiatric monograph "The Eating Disorders", which concluded that the film "... veers between comedy and pathos as a man discovers ... fat is the ... only sin in America." They approvingly note that, "The motivation for overeating and binge dieting are lampooned ... [and] medical consequences ... are elaborated in ... comedic fashion."
The film marked a turning point in the lives of actors Richard Karon and Paul Zegler who played DeLuise's obese "Chubby Checker" support group members. Both actors lost large amounts of weight in the years subsequent to the making of the film.
This film is a must see for anyone who loves very funny movies and /or has a weight problem!
My dad took me to see this in the theater when I was four years old in 1980. I still remember it. Time is such a thief. I miss those days so much. So much has changed, I have lost a lot of people and I am only getting older. It’s crazy how a movie can bring back so many memories that were so long ago. 🥲😢
@William Woke 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I saw it when it came out in my 20's. I'm gonna rewatch it tonnight. Your Dad sounds like a great guy. 👍
This movie rips my heart, what's left of what I did to it.
Gtfoh, really!? I'm from an Italian city and this movie reminds me so much of my upbringing... Just the good ol neighborhood.. These kids really missed it..
48:52 lol this whole scene
I grew up in the 80's and just remember Dom Deluise as Burt Reynolds foil on the tonight show, etc. He was so great in this. The warmth and nurturing he showed his family. A beautiful man. God bless him.
Ha ha ha!
"Reynold's foil"
This was my family at several points, i laughed and cried, but mostly related.
Great movie, so true if you are Italian
The word is fool
I'm half Sicilian and this movie is a STAPLE without which we wouldn't survive. My mom and I have been quoting this film for at least a decade. You really have to be Italian to get it. I love this damn film so much
Agreed!!
Us too. “YOU ATE THE ONY”!!! 😂😂😂
@@EyeForKnowledge. "GET THE HONEY!!"
@@opinian1068 Dude. I haven’t seen this since the late 80’s. I forgot about that part. I about died laughing. 😂
No, you don't have to be Italian. I love this film so much. What a beautiful portrait this film is. Bless the Italians! And Dom Deluise. I just adored him and this whole film is such an underrated treasure.
i love that part when dominic tells frankie that he doesn't know how to "run his plate." i still use that expression. i see someone miss the opportunity to dunk their toast in their egg yolk, and i'll let'em have it- "you know something, junior? you don't know how to run your plate!"
Saint Joseph I always use the line on my mom. "you made me too much bread" and I was at family get together, and we were talking about food... and I asked them, if they ever sucked the jelly out of a jelly donut....... They didn't know where that came from. Great movie!!!
+Saint Joseph If you have two sunny side eggs take three slices of toast. One to dunk in the yellow yolk and the other other two to make a sammich with the white that remains Lol
I am Sicilian and Northern Italian!This movie holds such a special place in my heart! So much like what really goes on in Italian families! The cast is totally authentic in this film, and I will always love it! ♥️♥️🌹
you know how to live!@@Oorgruwaldio
This movie chronicles the struggle of a middle aged man to lose weight. I can so totally relate (especially when he is lying in bed bombarded by food commercials.) Good food is a primal pleasure that is hard-wired into our brains. The makers of cheap delicious eats are well aware of this, and use every trick in the book to make us crave their products. Anyway Dom Delouse gives a memorable performance, and some "food for thought" as we look at this common problem.
Lies again? F**king Ass Thick Sperm
“I like to stuff a jelly donut with a Reese’s peanut butter cup then put it in a warm oven & let the chocolate & everything melt into the dough.”
When I first saw this movie, I thought -
“Oooh! 😧
How come I never thought of that?!?” 😍😋
the people from the mediterrainian have such a zest for food and life
"YOU ATE THE ONY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WELLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! " Dom lets go of the balloon he was blowing up and the air comes rushing out of it. Comedy Gold.
😂
What are you gonna do with that cake ?
Anne's shreiking at 6:49 is priceless! Not to mention calling her dead cousin an SOB with his mother in the room!
This is a family favorite, particularly because we are of Italian descent. When I show this movie to non Italians, they do not see the humor we do. I have uncles that laugh uproariously over this movie and they are overweight! Anne Bancroft swearing at the corpse and ripping up the cake was great. So was when the Chubby Checkers all fell off the wagon and started binge eating.
I'm German, French and English and got it the first time I saw it at twenty.
@@cynthialyman2636 Me too, I'm German, French and English, we're Cajuns and I got it the first time I watched it, and I've been fat my whole life, I'm 61, and didn't find a woman who didn't care about that until I was 45 years old, we've been married for 16 years now.
nsfan1956 Well congrats on a happy marriage; that's wonderful at any age but l think we appreciate life's blessings so much more as we grow older...at least l know l do.
@@cynthialyman2636 Thank you, me too.
@@nsfan1956 You're welcome: many happy years to come for both of you.
A very real, and touching film. Missing Dom DeLuise, after all these many years. Thanks for the memories!
+So Turner Dom DeLuise was soo cute i never noticed that before bless him x
And Ann too
This is such a glimpse into our lost past. This was how things were in the 60s and 70s in New Jersey. Fond memories. Real people, simpler times…
better times
Great movie. Interesting fact is that Anne Bancroft never directed or wrote another film after this saying she didn't think she was good at it. Shame. She could have gone far at it. RIP Ann, Dom and Ron.
+Jackie Newberry Anne is asked about this on Charlie Rose. On youtube. She didn't want the job of taking care of everybody. I haven't heard that she thought she wasn't good at it..maybe it's true. Anne liked being taken care of...and had to fight that urge to stay herself in her marriage. According to Anne.
Amazing actor..she directed a gem here.
That is such a shame and such a lesson there. I love just how this film was directed and love her. Aw man that's really sad. She could have done so many cool films about unusual subject matters which i am sure would have been part of her personal touch.
I don't know the exact story but in Lee Strassberg's acting class in her "private moments exercise" i think she chose to pee. Something like that. She was a fearless, brilliant artist.
Its a shame she only did this one film, She did a great job. Sadly the film was not a hit with critics or audiences.
"Probably sausage....that was Sal's favorite! Uhh, oooh poor Sal!" and "I loved him too, he was like a mother to me!" LMFAO! 9:11
Always...always...always. 🤣
@@robpetcola3931 I'll get'chya' a glass a water....
And can't bury his big fat ass cuz the casket was too damn big
"He always had something on him!"🤣🤣🤣
Always! lol
He's studying,....he's studying.......Frankie's sleepin'
hahahaha
For me the scene in the kitchen where Anne Bancroft reacts to Dom Deluise having eaten a piece of Anthony's birthday cake is one of the funniest ever captured on film. I can't watch her without practically peeing myself. 🤣
My father always said "The Olivas Family was put on this earth to see how far the skin could stretch" Going up and down in weight has always been a huge issue in my life. This movie holds a very Special place in my heart. It's a great movie about family and acceptance of self and each other. All around Hats off to writers, director, cast Great movie.
What is Anne Bancroft saying at 7:06?
The Italian part of what she is saying is “go eat.”
He's not even that fat compared to people today. Boy, how times have changed.
I was thinking the same thing. It's eerie. Obesity these days has gotten severely out of control. :( and I am not saying that as a "skinny" chick..I'm here 20 pounds heavier than 2 years ago.
It's because you live in America. The most obese country in the world, blame your government, your greedy food corporations, they are all making you all this way.
Not all of us. I'm thin. Always have been. But yes, the US has gotten disgustingly fat, and sees no problem with it. They want to believe it's some kind of disease instead of a lack of self-control when it comes to what food they choose to consume.
Sirdiggar, That's exactly what it is, which stands to reason, because the only thing we manufacture in this country now is health care.
Today? He died in 2009, genius.
A forgotten classic! Thank you!
This is one of those rare films you can watch over and over..love it
i remember my fathers family being like that. yelling and screaming, then without missing a beat loving and nurturing
my fathers favorite movie we played this at his funeral 3 years ago today and it helped ease our pain. Enjoy Life every second of it.
this and easy money with Rodney Dangerfield
Aww, how thoughtful. I’m so sorry for your loss!
🙏🙏
you will see your dad again
Why did The Critic have to be so deep.. This Movie combines Brooklyn's account of first generation Italian culture wrapped in comedy. We relate.❤❤❤❤❤
Not to be critical, I believe it's supposed to take place in the upper part of Manhattan's 5th and 6th precinct's border between Greenwich Village and Little Italy "Nolita" in Gentrification-ese.
Clues:
Bleeker street address,
Balducci's fruit and the gays and gay couples shown in the screenplay.
Andare con Dio!
He says the address, 32 Bleeker street. That's lower Manhattan.
this movie is such a classic,i was in tears through out the movie man!Anne Bancroft scenes were absolutely hilarious!!
Me too. Miss the love between siblings. We're grew so distant just like everywhere.. and meet like strangers. Loved this movie.
She was amazing!
She directed it
Wow, what a shame. This is considered fat back in 1980 and look where we are now.
Anyway, thanks for posting this. It's a great movie.
of course that was considered fat. the fact you think he isn't shows how fuck you're conception of fat is. maybe you're a fatso too lol
I loved it when Antoinette got pissed off at Dom for eating the birthday cake and she smashes it for that. Real Funny
+Armando De Leon great acting talent right there !!!
+Armando De Leon It was really funny when she whipped up on him after eating all the Chinese food, too! ;)
Greg Woodie bet it gave ya a woodie too ;)
You ate the "ony"!! lol!
My mother would have done that lol. She had a real Italian temper.
you know something
I'm 36 years old and I still don't know how to run my plate
Do you know how to use your bread correctly?
Very cute comment SMbigpapi. Made me smile. I'm 100% Irish, and I love this movie. I think that I was Italian in a past life.
Bridget Mahoney I'm Puerto Rican and I often see a lot of similarities between us and the Italians maybe I was Italian a past life too
Lol
TY for this upload, I find myself telling ppl about the chained cabinets intervention and no one has ever seen it. Love this movie !
You're welcome!
Me too! I tell everyone about this movie. I absolutely love it
half my family is Italian catholic. this movie is spot on. LOL
Anne Bancroft wrote and directed this movie, and she herself was raised in an Italian Catholic culture in NYC, so she knows how it's like and as you said it really is a 'spot on.' Lol.
The good half !
I am obsessed with this movie, can’t believe it’s on here
Thanks! 💖
The List the Nurse reads to him is hilarious
And the tears just rolling down his face is such a mood 😭😂
I loved it!!
🎯
Sounds like every meeting with a dietician, lol
Probably the funniest comedy I've seen since those wonderful Mel Brooks films (and I mean all of them). Ann Bancroft did a fabulous job of portraying an Italian family and also a good job of telling a great story!
Coincidentally, she was married to Mel Brooks until she passed away. A lot of the cast in this flick have been in Mel Brooks’ films.
@@Frankmt215 Mel produced this film.
And with Dom Deluise as the star, it isn't hard. His parents were both first generation Italian immigrants and his love of food in real life is quite well established (check out the Eat This videos that he made during the 80s. They are on RUclips). He really made this movie work. The sad reality is that he did struggle with weight in real life and it did ultimately cause his death. At least he made it to 75 years old and didn't die super young.
One of my all-time favorites! Watching for the umpteenth time and enjoying pasta pomodoro whilst doing so. After all, watching Fatso on an empty stomach would be a crime! 😋
I just polished off a portion of lasagna during the film...
It was good, but not as good as "Dom's" looked.
This movie always makes me hungry. "YOU ATE THE ONY!"
This movie is truly classic great and accurate to the Catholic Italian tradition of what I knew about.
Salute
Dom DeLouise+
Anne Bancroft+
Memory Eternal+
May Perpetual Light shine upon them and by the Mercy of God May they rest in peace Amen
By todays standards, he's not even that fat. He could lose a few. I live in WI, everyone here seems obese. Don't get me wrong I love this movie! Thank you for posting!
meltz911 I totally agree with you! Dominic looks skinny compared to most men I know. He doesn’t have that much of an abdomen area.
That slice of Little Italy is gone now. Such an innocent time. A very fun movie that any Italian-American can relate to. Especially the food cravings. I remember sitting with my cousins at a funeral and we started talking about food. Suddenly everyone was happy, animated, coming to life.
There's still some places left. Our lady of Pompeii church. Faiccos. Pinos. Joe's of bleeker Street. Johns on prince Street. Parisi. Albanese. Alleva. Dipalo. Pasticceria rocco
Arthur Ave in The Bronx and The Hill in St Louis I feel like are some of the few real little Italies left
Did anyone recognize the lady who recommended Chubby Checkers to Dom in the card shop?
She had that famous line in "When Harry Met Sally" where she says, "I'll have what she's having."
That’s Estelle Reiner . The wife of Carl Reiner and the mother of Rob Reiner
I'm black and I used TV o skip school to watch this movie over and over again, just loved Dom!
I have to admire your dedication
This film is so great so Italian the entire cast brings it all home
This movie is a classic!
And the mind is a powerful thing.
I could swear I smelled that spaghetti sauce as it was bubbling on the stove lol!
🤤🤤🍝🍝🍝
What a great response!!
Dom DeLuise‘s performance was incredible. The only problem with this film was the tone. It kind of left you wondering whether it was a comedy or drama. The ironic thing is DeIuise was able to switch effortlessly regardless. I saw it when I was 9 and still love it’s charm.
RIP Dom Di Louise & Ann Bancroft , My Favorite Movie of Dom Di Louise
Growing up in an Italian family my grandma would show us this movie all the time as kids and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it!
Wow. Binge Eating Disorder personified. This movie is SOOOO triggering for anyone like myself recovering from that. The close ups of all the food, was really tempting. Couldn't get over how you could buy 2 heaping bags of food for 40 bucks. These days at a Chinese restaurant, you order two or three small boxes it's at least 20!
Bert Allan... Try alcoholism. it will make you wish you had meat on your bones cuz at least u know you ate and kept your food down
The most relatable movie I've ever seen.
Uh-huh . The obesity war goes on .
Dom DeLuise is such a great actor in this movie. I love when he is describing food, with such great natural enthusiasm.
"You ate the ony"
WELL!?!?!?!
Balloon: BBBPPHPHPHPHHPHPPH!!
My mother used to lose her temper just like her :)
Dave Wilson Rofllllllll!!!
Oh God , so real. My family..full Italian Americans and very dramatic like Annie in that scene. Love it. So real.Great to see Annie paying homage to her Italian roots . Born in the Bronx as Anna Maria Italiano, about as Italian as you could get.
Hilariously sad movie! Loved it. Laughed and cried. Thanks for posting! Andy.Mueller.75
“Why do they want me to be skinny? I’m not so bad as I am…am I?” My whole life right there
'You ate the 'ONY'!!!!!...........WELLLLLLLL???????!!!!' (PHLBPHLBPHLBPHLBPHLBPHLBPHLB) LMAO!!!!! ;)
lol
FROZEN HA HA & 40 Dollars worth of Chinese food also. Love it.
You ate the ONY is what I remember most of this movie. lol
This movie has been a part of my Italian -American family for what seems like forever. A family get together is just not the same without us quoting this movie and of course eating. "You ate the "ony" and "I'm not eatin' it. I'm just smelling it!" "Fancul' you forgot!" and of course after the food binge with the Chubby Checkers..."Is there any of Antonette's pineapple peach preserves left? The pectin will settle my stomach"..I could go on and on, but this movie really is an underrated classic that so few people seem to even know exists...and 40 dollars of Chinese food isnt even a half a bag in 2018 money LOL.
Anne Bancroft had such a mind. What a genius.
Anne Bancroft, Dom DeLuise, etc. were absolutely perfect!!!
"You're such good people. The good people are the fat people."
Amy Shanahan and the fat people die young!
Ty so much. One of the funniest movie ever with dom and the beautiful Anne Bancroft . So unfair it's not out on DVD unless it's way over priced. You ate the ony. Classic
The most-quotable movie of all-time.
I loved this movie when I was a kid. It's even better than I remember
Kitchen scene,gun,knife, shows the horror of food addiction. Even when we don't act it out, this is how we feel. Horrible addiction. All others one can live abstinence.... food requires many decisions and struggles every meal 😢
I didn't think Dom was all that big in the film, I've seen him a lot bigger in others. He just looked above average to me.
when youre the same size as fat people you dont look fat
he did a lot of dieting in real life too...and consequently went up and down a great deal between his movies. ironically, in this movie he is actually on the slimmer side for him.
Thanks for the the upload Joe! I missed this in the theatre when it was first released and only saw a butchered version on broadcast TV a few years after, but seeing the entire uncut version made my day! It's a funny, bittersweet movie with a clear message; Dominick's weight problem was alleviated somewhat and kept in-check once he was in love and stopped worrying about it! There was a sitcom with Nell Carter in the 80's that ripped-off the "Chubby Checker" rescue/ food orgy scene. I have yet to try the jelly doughnut with the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup in the oven recipe but someday I'll get around to it!
I saw it in a theater in 1980. Was so happy when I found it online. Dom D.'s best film, I think.
I was BLESSED to see it in the theater with my mom. Laughed and cried all the way through. Saw it on cable...had the VHS tape and here’s Utube😇 It’s on DVD and blue ray now 🥳 Gotta get it A CLASSIC 💕
One of my favorite movies, I never get tired of watching it, I always laugh so hard. The actors and actresses are all perfect for the parts they played. They sure don't make good movies like this anymore. ❤😊
Agreed. This movie is an all time classic.
Dom DeLuise in rare form as serious romantic man....whats not to love. AB always such a pleasure to watch. I think my favorite DD film is The End with Burt Reynolds. Those two comedic geniuses were so perfectly matched. Fatso. Classic. Thank you
Love this movie! Thanks so very much for uploading it, @Joe Postove! I love all movies about food; but this is, without a doubt, my favorite one. Wonderful, funny story with great, comedic actors and the sights of classic, old-style NY to boot. Little movie with a big heart. Enjoying this now just as much as when I first had the pleasure of seeing it in the theater in 1980. Mille Grazie, Giuseppe!
Swelled up with tears when he started talking to the pic of his mom at the end
Don't watch this if you're on a diet! It made me so hungry i pigged out.LOL
Anne Bancroft does care about her brother. !SHE doesn't want lose him like Sal but she accepts him. Like he is but doesn't want to see him sick. Lydia puts meaning in his life! Good story GOOD ending my sister has made fun of me leaving me alone with Chinese food! it hurts a little but I just keep trying to stay healthy hope people accept me as I am!
"Give him the honey, Jr." "Get the honey." LOL...…OMG....it's the best part of the whole movie. (Richard Karron / The big curly hair guy with the large mustache.)
Yeah, funny dude-he was also in Sidney Lumet’s “Prince of the City” the following year
Still brings me tears of laughter and emotion. This movie reminds me of my family in a sweet and crazy way.
My Italian Catholic aunt who was a real life Antionette took me to see it at the Graumans Chineese Theater on Hollywood Blvd when it came out. I'm 52 now, I was 10 then. Great memories!
thank you for providing enough information about the movie that I knew I'd like it from the beginning. Loved the diet doctor coughing away with a lit cigarette hanging from his lips- LOL. The key is the ending- I won't tell, so to anyone who thinks they might like it- it's worth watching to the end.
Great movie, wonderfully written that showed Anne Bankroft's genius with a talented cast! With memorable lines like, " When I eat, I'm me!" "You ate the Ony!" "You ate $40 of Chinese food!" "I ate everything!"
God I remember dunking Italian bread in the sauce on the stove when I was a kid me and my brother and then getting yelled at by Ma "Get outta the sauce!" Ahh Saturday afternoons in the 80s as a teenager the memories love ya Ma RIP❤🎉
Fabulous film!!!!! So under rated! Great memories, I grew up working on bleeker street and 7th avenue, how I miss the sights and sounds and flavors of Rocco's bakery on bleeker street! Too expensive to live there again :-(
Thank you sooooo much for keeping this great film on RUclips! I always watch it when I need to smile!
“I think he was a little too fat!”
“The doctor said the same thing!”
I quote this about myself constantly.
I remember renting this with my mom i was probably 15 when it came out on video from the video store. So, that long ago. Lol, it's funny it was after seeing this I started making omelettes with the mozz and the fresh tomato on the side *no bread like he did, Lol! I still make it to this day. It's one of my very favorite breakfasts. I make it all the time and think of this movie when I do. Lol, so weird. I loved Anne Bancroft in whatever she did. She was so underrated as an actor etc., except for the Miracle Worker (In my top 5 favorite movies). Miss her kind of genius still!
Darn Anne Bancroft(born Anna Maria Italiano) really captures what being an Italian American in NYC is like. She definitley deserved better reviews for this her only directional effort. The part where she screams at Dom for eating part of the birthday cake is so real. Very very Italian. This movie is a beautiful touching combination of comedy and drama that should have been a big hit. Thankful people years later are discovering it.
There will never be another Dom DeLuise! May god bless you and keep those heavens smiling!!!
Thank you so much for uploading this my whole family loves this! It means so much to us!
Gimme those keys or ill blow your nose right off your face HAHAHAHA!!!!! The whole scene though with the knife and all jesus christ cant get anymore funnier!
Thanks for uploading this, it's an old family favorite!!
liquidschwarrtz, it was said that when Mel Brooks' mother learned he was bringing home an Italian Catholic girl home to meet her, she replied, "I'll be in the kitchen....with my head in the oven!" 🤣🤣🤣
One of my all time favorite movies. Thank you so much for putting it up on youtube!
This os a staple in Italian Catholic homes . Everyone can relate to this .. lol 💯 😆 🤣 😂 Anne Bancroft was such a treasure .. I remember meeting Dom when he was on a book tour for one of his cookbooks. We spent a few hours talking after he was done signing books. What fun and memories talking about cooking this movie . Classic
I absolutely love this movie ! I've seen it several times and I really don't think he is that fat compared to today's standards.I was surprised that I was able to see the entire movie on RUclips.
Yeah. He would be mildly tubby, but not seen as really fat. He did gain weight as time went on, and by the late 80s he was much larger.
That's what I saying to myself...he's not what u call huge or real fat just chubby a bit...
Dom is so adorable in this wonderful film and his love interest is an absolute jewel
His love interest is that lady from Easy Money who played Rodney Dangerfields wife
Anne Bancroft and Sam Kinison should've had a screaming contest between each other. Oh, Aaagghh!
Sam would've won the ritchter scale but Ann would've won the duration part♡
Anne Bancroft was great in this
Love the smoking doctor.
Me too. He's nice and skinny and loaded with tar and nicotine. Who will die first Dom or the doc?
Hilarious.
damn some people today make sal look thin as hell. take me with you sally boy.
Fast forward 40 yrs. and he would be considered on the thin side today.
One of my favorite films of all time. A real "feel good" movie written, directed and acted in by the elegant, beautiful, talented Ann Bancroft, formerly Anna Italiano and wife of Mel Brooks.
Thank you for posting this. It's a GEM. Period.
Very nice and fun movie. Reminds me of growing up in the old Italian neighborhood. I even understood a lot of the old Italian language. Thank you for the fun times.
I swear by today's standard's Dom is barely overweight in this film.
Thanks so much for sharing! Just did a search for this on DVD - $99.00!!! I have my much viewed vhs I'll be hanging on to I guess!
Omg i was looking for this every where and I finally found it !!!!
He’s not even fat. He’s not even big by today’s standards.
"...AND WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THERE'S EVEN ONE DROP--ONE DROP O HONEY LEFT!?" Hahahahaa
Take me with you, Sally boy!
A classic line!
Drama queens all .
"Sal, take me with you, Sal!!!" 😭😂🤣
What an underrated movie, such a treasure. I've loved this movie for years, but only had it on VHS, thank you for the upload,
Loved the Sweet Georgia Brown song, related to another Anne's Bancroft and Mel Brooks movie - To be or not to be!!!
I love this movie. I remember seeing it in a theater back in 1980 when I was a kid. It still makes me hungry!!
