Dear CW,

Here's a fun one... I've been asked to come up with a list of = feature films for a nutrition counseling class that show how people may use food = to cope, doctor or counselor/patient interaction, or food rituals in the home. She is not necessarily looking for films where food is an overarching theme -- rather, films with scenes that can be used as a discussion-starter to liven up a lecture. A few ideas that the = prof. has come up with already are:

Patch Adams
Soul Food
Two Weeks Notice
Parenthood
The Doctor
Bridget Jones Diary

A couple of others with key scenes that I'm thinking of are:

Candy
Pieces of April
Spanglish (though I haven't seen it)
Fried Green Tomatoes

I keep wanting to recommend the 'Itis episode of The Boondocks, but I = don't quite thing that's what she's after ;) . If anyone can recall / = recommend specific scenes (in case I haven't seen the film in question recently), = I'd be very appreciative.

Thanks in advance,
