Is this the film where........


A boy runs out of food and cuts pictures of food from a magazine and eats it with a knife and fork?

Yes, that is indeed a scene from King of the Hill!

I was just going to ask that same question. I remember seeing that scene in a movie years ago but couldn't remember what it was called. Glad I've found out.

Hah, that's kind of weird...

I had seen this movie at some point when i was younger in the 90s, and remembered that exact scene, while totally forgetting everything else about the movie..

For some reason that scene stuck in my memory, and i've always wondered what movie it was from, now i found it

It's just funny that other people remember the exact same scene as well...

reply

I guess Universal remembered it also, since they used the images of the food pictures on the blu-ray disc itself.

It comes straight from Hotchner's book as well. Which is an excellent book, by the way.

He gets the worst cramps after that and I've always wondered if they were caused by eating paper or just the next phase of his hunger pains.
