What's left behind the scenes

  • While preparing for the shoot, Natasha Henstridge tried to gain weight. Special padding under her clothes made her appear even more statuesque.
  • The plot was based on an incident where a newspaper received a question asking if one could gain weight by eating a box of colored chalk twice a week. The editorial staff replied that this was a case of a purely psychological disorder characterized by an abnormal appetite for non-edible objects. In the same issue of the newspaper, an article was published about a girl who felt no pain at all.
