Profile of Heavy

The mood of Heavy is bittersweet, gloomy, and contemplative. The plot centers around self discovery, misfits, and hopes. It is a drama, independent, and romance movie. Stylistically, Heavy is a melodrama. In approach, it is serious and realistic. The pacing is slow. Heavy takes place, at least partly, in a diner. The setting is New York. It happens in the 1990s. Heavy is known for being an award winner and critically acclaimed.

Summary of Heavy

An effervescent young waitress illuminates the dim environs of a gritty roadside beer joint, enchanting the shy and corpulent chef. Winner of a Special Jury Recognition Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

The New York Times
