	What's Eating Gilbert Grape Movie Review
		Gilbert (Johnny Depp, in another outstanding performance from the film) is the unofficial caretaker of the Grape clan, a rural Iowa family that includes the aforementioned Arnie, coming up on 18 years old, and the enormous Momma (Darlene Cates), a 500-pound woman who hasn't left the Grape house in nearly a decade.
		Compounding problems are the fact that Gilbert's job (yes, he works, too) at the corner store is jeopardized by the new FoodLand (complete with lobster tank), he's having an affair with a crazy (married) woman (Mary Steenburgen), and, in fact, the Grape's house is crumbling around them.
		It's enough to drive a man to suicide, but Gilbert is given a brief respite from the chaos of daily life when Becky (Juliette Lewis) arrives in town with her mother as part of a trailer caravan.

		Just a touch of voice-over from leading man Johnny Depp sets the stage for a story that is told from his character's viewpoint even as it takes in a host of supporting players and deals with such tangential issues as frustrated infidelity and the strip-malling of America.
		Johnny Depp is good in the starring role, and the supporting cast do a nice job as well.
		Johnny Depp is excellent as usual as Arnie's concerned big brother (the title character) and Juliette Lewis (with a bad hair-day!) is adequate as Becky, the girl who wants to know what makes him tick.

	What's Eating Gilbert Grape
		Gilbert is a conflicted young man, working at the local grocery store, which is getting heavy competition from a huge supermarket that has recently opened outside of town.
		In addition, Gilbert and his two sisters also care for their extremely overweight mother (Darlene Cates), who has not left their dilapidated house in seven years.
		What's most interesting about "Gilbert Grape" is that none of these multiple subplots veers into cliched directions (with the possible exception of the cartooney affair with Steenburgen, which seems out of sync with the rest of the film).
