There is an article at MSNBC called "Boys dying to be thin: the new face of anorexia" that says 1 in 4 anorexia and bulimia sufferers are male. I was never officially diagnosed as anorexic as a teen but had serious problems with self-image and eating was a problem, especially during my adolescence.
These films and their endings...hah... I've seen only one truthful anorexia movie where the girl died in the end. Nothing sugarish in that movie. Just raw truth. And watching that movie was one of the turning points in my healing back then. Made me think alot...
I love how he treats her. I wish I had someone who showed that much compassion for me. It has nothing to do with sex. Just nice to have someone who will always love you.
My best friend suffered a horrible bout of anorexia/bulemia in, I think she told me, junior high/high school, but I don't remember how many years she suffered. She told me that she recovered when she "accepted Christ into her life" (her words, verbatim). She "accepted..." two decades ago and is, now, 230+ lbs. It is well known that if a person falls into ED, and for a long enough time, and they come out of it, the consequences they can face are life-long health issues of which she has many.
@AccordingToLo That's because it was based on a book written by a psychologist who specialized in adolescent eating disorders. He knew all about it from the doctor's side.
I can't believe this film is thirty years old! Even though I'm a recovered anorexic after living with the illness for nine years, (and I'm only 20 now) I find humor in thinking the doctor should have had a group exorcism with Casey and her family, covering them in holy water yelling "The power of Christ compels you!" Gosh, that doctor was creepy at the end... But I loved the actor. RIP Jason Miller!
Wow, the book was waaay better. That doc was creepy & only got creepier w/ every ice scream spoonful he took!lol I mean, if I had to sit there & watch him eat I'd probably relapse. Eerie smile from him at the end & her reaction to it w/ the lick & all, not any better. How is it that I'm laughing at the end of an ed movie? lol
Thank you for posting this. I've wanted to see this for 30 years. I've had disordered eating for most of my life, due to pressures of dancing. Yes guys feel just as much insecurity when another guy comes in to the studio with zero body fat naturally and you are left thinking "Starve" as the only way to compete. Creepy ending, but at least an important topic was brought to light. Thank you again for posting this.
@lemonde49 no. it is not that easy to be cured, but I think the point was to show that there is hope for recovery and just because she ate some ice cream doesn't mean everyday she'll be able to eat anything she wants. It was just showing that she was able to take a step towards wanting to recover
Charles Durning is positively thin in this movie. Thanks for posting this, it was one of the first movies to deal with anorexia and the reality of it.
i think I've seen this movie at least 100 times in my early teenage years, it marked me so much... i too had eating disorders... i was so obsessed with this movie, ironically instead of helping me fight my self-image issues and eating disorders, i actually made me more sick and weak.. watching this part and the ending with Joni Mitchell Songs to aging children come, very depressing and beautiful..I guess this movie represents a very dark, lost, sad and vulnerable part of my life...
He's so creepy. Then again, Levenkron is a bit of a tool and he wrote the source book. Huge messiah complex. His theories on self-injury also are very narrow and biased - they don't fit non-eating disordered injurers.
ppl are being so stupid about their relationship! back then ppl could show affection and care about one another with out there being a dirty reason for it. we now a day have a very screwd up perspective on human relationships and it makes me very sad and omg the movie is from the early 80's some of the music was strange get over it! lol
@TwatSwab My best friend, from when we were both 7 years old, take walks around my old neighborhood and reminisce about old times, and onlookers/passers-by stare at us as though we are doing something wrong. One time we were taking a walk, I got so fed up with the people staring that I made a comment about how rude it was that they were doing that, and she told me that she thought it was because they thought we were a "couple". Times have certainly changed and, in many ways, for the worse.
What a creepy ending. Starting with the pervy grins and ghost singing and ending with the picture. I must say that was THE most depressing movie I have ever seen in my life. I am scarred for life now and I am never watching another e.d. movie but this was by far the worst.
I actually thought this ending was sort of adorable, haha. And if you'll notice, she sort of let the ice cream touch her teeth! Obviously it doesn't mean she's "cured", but she took a big step.
By the way, my comment about being cured after the insurance runs out was a sarcasm. But unfortunately, that's how it works in many of the ED units. Eating disorders last a lifetime. They are never "cured", even after they seem to get better. I call it "remission". Like alcoholics, they are either lapsing or recovering
According to IMDB, "with medical supervision, Jennifer Jason Leigh wasted down to 87 pounds" for this role. THATS RIDICULOUS!! That's like Barry Williams becoming addicted to nicotine because his role on the Brady Bunch episode to persuade kids not to smoke called for him to actually smoke! How ironic.
They really didn't know how to treat eating disorders back then, did they? In most of today's facilities, they wouldn't let either one of the ED patients alone in their rooms for a second. They'd be on them like leeches...until their insurance ran out...then they were cured.
I think this movie was great! How many of us feel like our family don't notice who we really are or would even care to know..I love how the movie showed her start and progression into this disease
but its supposed to be a somber, depressed movie... i think it was perfect for that time, it did have this 'educational' angle to it... i know it marked me for a many years ... When i see her in this movie, I see Jennifer Jason Leigh today as she was back then. Just like Jodie Foster..
@MisakiModel I see where you're coming from-the whole idea is that she has to be living for herself and not for the approval of her parents and everyone else. But I disagree-I think she ate the ice cream because she realized it was okay, not to please Clay :)
AGREED! Seriously, he'd be lucky to get her to eat toast. At least that would be WARM! I understand what the movie/book/author is trying to get across, but it's so inaccurate in some ways. You don't just magically start eating again - and definitely NOT ice cream! Not to mention the creepy music, lol!
@hollyann79 I see your point but this is a movie, it's fictional. In real life he would have most likely started with something non fattening, like bread or rice.
My therapist is great. She's really helpful. It's taken about a year of trying about four different counsellors to find one who actually seems to know what in heavens they are talking about. Just keep pushing for help. :)
this movie triggered my ana, i wanted to throw up when i started watching it. so i ended up forcing myself to eat a fry and some chips. i feel like a fatty. 5 days and i eat all that..=(
I really wish my psych would be that good and normal and showing sympathy and all I mean, this can't be in real life, can it? are there any psych's this good? I wouldn't believe there're this kinda psych's. there's only normal people you could meet daily that are as nice as he is being nice to her.
and OMG he said: I love you to her. right! now that's getting a little too nice if you ask me. perv?
I wish my therapist was as good as he is. I just used to sit there and nod until I could go home. She wasn't clever like he is, she wasn't interested.
About the ending...remember when she was saying that she used to eat food without it touching her lips? He was just trying to get her to enjoy eating the ice cream.
Right...she hasn't eaten for months (at least) and after a single family therapy session she's eating ice cream, fries and a burger. The rest of the film is good, but come on! If it were that easy to recover I would have recovered 4 years ago!
@missapril90 lol I don't think she ends up eating the rest, she probably just makes a start on the ice cream or something. I mean, if he "cured" her that fast, I wanna know his secret (studying psych)
@xoxuhmandaxox the end is ment to send the message that she is starting to get better by eating .. just dont know why they kept looking at each other so suspiciously
When my brother and I watched this movie he started to cry. I had never seen my brother cry before. He told me "If you wont eat to keep yourself alive for your own sake than do it for mine. I can't take loosing my baby sister. Please, I beg you eat!"
I remember seeing this movie with my mom and the part where that other girl dies creeped me out but see it now doesn't scare me anymore. I haven't seen this movie in like 20 yrs, how scary is that??
Same here, I remember this movie being much scarier---started with the part when the dad when nuts and I just realized now how the other girl died. It still is scary, but not in the same way---Btw, thanks for uploading gabbyjw!
its because he is making fun of the way he eats to make her smile if you actually noticed his eyes he makes a bit of a funny face and then she laughs.
I *KNOW*! That's the first thing I thought when I saw this. I read the book a million times a million years ago (recovering ana...how about you?). Book is so much better than the movie. But seriously, the music is just plain CREEPY! lol!

When my brother and I watched this movie he started to cry. I had never seen my brother cry before. He told me "If you wont eat to keep yourself alive for your own sake than do it for mine. I can't take loosing my baby sister. Please, I beg you eat!"

@sumle85 I had always wished I had an older brother. You're fortunate to have one and one who cares so much. =)

I remember seeing this movie with my mom and the part where that other girl dies creeped me out but see it now doesn't scare me anymore. I haven't seen this movie in like 20 yrs, how scary is that??

Same here, I remember this movie being much scarier---started with the part when the dad when nuts and I just realized now how the other girl died. It still is scary, but not in the same way---Btw, thanks for uploading gabbyjw!

its because he is making fun of the way he eats to make her smile if you actually noticed his eyes he makes a bit of a funny face and then she laughs.

I *KNOW*! That's the first thing I thought when I saw this. I read the book a million times a million years ago (recovering ana...how about you?). Book is so much better than the movie. But seriously, the music is just plain CREEPY! lol!
