One major flaw with this interesting film. What makes fat people eat incessantly? This is never discussed in the film.
Nonetheless, this is an interesting film dealing with how fat people are treated by society. They are outcasts and that is so true.
Kaley Cuoco, the star lead of the film, is a look-alike for Cameron Diaz.
"Gentleman's Agreement" had a reporter posing as a Jew to see what it's like being Jewish. "Black Like Me" had someone passing as a black person to experience anti-black sentiment. This is the underlying idea of this film as well.
The girl has an on-going dispute with her ex-heavy mother. She is angry that her mother's obesity led to illness that took money away from her possibly attending college. When she loses a sport scholarship do to an injured leg, she enters a contest to create a documentary. The subject is to be fat.
Depicting personal feelings of obese people is definitely the way to go. We need much more human understanding in this area as well.
