The plight of plussize women is mined in this sparkling and inventive dramedy. Brooke Elliott dazzles in a tricky role: a shallow model whose spirit winds up in the body of a dead -- and zaftig -- lawyer. Watching her struggle with the transition is screwball fun, bolstered with cameos by Rosie O’Donnell and Paula Abdul. (Sony, $40)
