Norbit Movie
It falls to Norbit's lot to undergo many severe trials. As a kid, he (Eddie Murphy) is abandoned at the door of a Chinese restaurant and reared by Mr. Wong (Eddie Murphy). During his schooldays the spineless Norbit is forced to pay court to an aggressive masterful obese girl, Rasputia (also Eddie Murphy), because she protects him from bullies. Some years later, he dares not protest and leads his 'protector' to the altar. Rasputia's aim in life is to eat to satiety and humble her weak-willed henpecked husband. When Norbit's childhood flame, Kate Thomas (Thandie Newton), comes back to town, he ventures to resort to various tricks in order to get rid of his tyrannical, monstrous, unfaithful spouse and win the heart of Kate who is engaged to Deion Hughes (Cuba Gooding Jr.).
