Heavy is a 1995 drama movie, directed by James Mangold, and stars Liv Tyler, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Shelley Winters, and Deborah Harry. Mangold won "Best Screenplay" and Grand Prix Asturias "Best Feature" at the Gijón International Film Festival, and the Special Jury Prize for Directing at the Sundance Film Festival.

Some scenes were filmed at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York, USA. Heavy is a production of Available Light. Joe Grifasi and Evan Dando play major supporting roles.

The plot hinges around the arrival of an attractive new waitress (Tyler) at a remote diner, where she turns the solitary life of the overweight chef (Vince) upside down. Moving and ultimately disturbing, its themes are loneliness, false hope, and the problem of self worth.

The soundtrack of the movie featured instrumental compositions by Thurston Moore among other songs, including The Connells' hit '74 - '75.

The Heavy is an upcoming 2008 Marcus Warren film about rivalry and betrayal between two brothers. One is a candidate for Prime Minister and the other is a henchman for a businessman. When one is given the opportunity to take revenge against the other, he must come to terms with the truth and face a world where trust doesn't exist and loyalty is rare.

Victor is a cook who works in a greasy bar/restaurant owned by his mother, Dolly. It's just the two of them, a waitress named Delores, and a heavy drinking regular, Leo. But things change when Callie, a beautiful college drop-out, shows up as a new waitress and steals Victor's heart. But Victor is too shy to do anything about it, and too self-consciously overweight to dream of winning Callie away from her demanding boyfriend, Jeff. Victor's terrible loneliness overwhelms him when he has to face losing what he loves the most. Written by Martin Lewison
