Synopsis

This film tells a story about Gilbert Grape. He is a grocery store worker who is burdened by his family's needs. He cares and provides for a intellectually disabled young adult brother and a morbidly obese mother. The Grape household has deteriorated since the suicide of their father and Gilbert bares the weight (no pun intended) of a struggling poor American family. In this tale, Gilbert has a string of risky affairs which complicates matters. This movie tells a more realistic version of the trials and tribulations of barely functioning family in the mid-west of America.

Description of Arnie Grape:

Arnie is Gilbert's younger brother. During the period narrated in the film, Arnie turns eighteen. Due to his developmental delay, doctors thought that Arnie would die before he reached adulthood. His birthday is a remarkable feat, and his family carefully plans his birthday party in order to celebrate. Arnie is entirely dependent on Gilbert, and he accompanies his older brother wherever he goes. Arnie enjoys heights, and he can often be found hiding in the branches of the tree in his family's yard or climbing Endora's water tower.
