What Movie Is This? (Man Eats Flower Petals)

[masterdebater]

Definately sounds like Little Shop Original to me.

I watched The Golden Child the other night.
Remember how the kid eats leaves off that little stem to sustain himself?

Well, when I watched that scene, it reminded me of a scene in another movie where a guy keeps eating flower petals.
He just keeps eating them and eating them.  One right after the other.

It would have been an 80's or 90's film.

Anyone know what movie that is?

Ash, I can also tell you that this happens in "Super Fuzz."  For some reason the main character, Officer Dave Speed, eats all of the flower petals from a bouquet some gangsters were going to give to a film star - he does this as he puts them through silly tests to see if they are OK to drive.

Hmmm...

That sounds like it might be right.
I've seen Super Fuzz but was probably 8 or 9 years old when I last saw it. (around '83 or '84)

I'd love to see a video of that scene but there isn't any on Youtube that I could find.

I can't remember what the movie was about and I can't think of who acted in it.
I just remember that one scene of a guy eating flower petals.

For some reason, I keep thinking it's a guy pulling petals off a flower saying, "She loves me."  She loves me not." and eating each one.

Not 100% on that though.

This is bringing back memories to me too. Hmmmmm.

Thanks to Andrew for posting that scene from Super Fuzz for me.
That is the scene!    

Seeing The Golden Child triggered the memory. Sometimes I often wondered if I'd imagined the flower eating scene.
Finally....we can move this to the Solved board.  
Thanks again Andrew!

Could you be referring to Brain Smasher?

The movie in which you are referring to is Popeye(1980)Starring Robin Williams and Shelly Duvall.However the scene you are remembering is where Bluto(Paul Smith)is sitting at a table picking off flower petals saying She Loves me,She Loves me not(talking about Olive Oil)who is played by Duvall.
