FATSO ('80) starring Dom DeLuise depicts a man desperate to find love while struggling with his weight. The film was the first feature film that Anne Bancroft both wrote and directed. Bancroft was determined that the food in the film should be true to her memory of growing up in New York. "When the people eat bakery goods in this film," she said, "they actually come from a bakery that was just around the corner from my childhood home." | Turner Classic Movies: TCM

The iconic 1984 footage of Charlie Schmidt's cat Fatso, "playing" a blue electric keyboard, became an internet sensation when uploaded to YouTube in 2007. This clip launched the "play him off, Keyboard Cat" meme phenomenon, complete with its signature musical outro. The video was even featured on late-night TV as well as in corporate ads. | History In Pictures
