I never read the book. Nice job on the fat suit. I was only distracted a few times seeing seams.
I was angry at these characters so the acting was good!
This movie was gross and the characters demented. Plot? Sex addict Whale cheats and leaves family loved ones to F some younger guy who in shame starves himself, commits suicide or is murdered. Grieving relative hates the Whale so much that she and others aid him to feed himself to death. If any of them had cared they'd bring him the best electrolyte just plain water for a 40 day water fast for digestive cleansing, reset of his metabolism and less pressure on his heart and other vital organs. Block food deliveries monitor his vitals, do light stretching and very light movement exercise for circulation whenever he's hangry. Tell him to get healthy enough to go shop for his own food. Stop isolating and murdering obese addicts. Might as well be bringing meth to a meth head. Same dif.
