Tiptoes
(The Movie)
Yes,
this trailer is really bad. I've
heard two podcasts that rip
this movie apart. Now, I want to see this piece of crap, because
the trailer is just plain The Room bad. Supposedly, there is a lot
of history behind this movie. Yet, it seems the makers and actors
will not talk about this movie other than Peter
Dinklage .
Dinklage
says this from NY Times, ((“I saw the director’s
cut, and it was gorgeous.” That two-and-a-half-hour director’s
cut was shown at a film festival in Austin, Tex.; the director,
Matthew Bright, was reportedly fired shortly afterward, and the movie
was recut. “The people who fired him ruined the movie,” Dinklage
insisted. “They made it into a weird little quirky rom-com, but
with dwarves.” ))
Like I wrote before, no one really outside the film community really
knows this movie exist.
-Director’s
Cut?: Yes, there is a director's cut somewhere. The studio got wind
of how bad the movie was and panicked. They fired the director
(Matthew
Bright) and cut out huge portions with subplots and characters
completely disappearing for no reason. While the cut up version is
considered bad, I heard the 2hr version is worst, but at least it
makes sense.
Spoiler Alert: The Mother of Dragons?
-Director
Matthew Bright: It looks like this movie destroyed his career.
This was his last movie as director and most of his other work
stopped in 2004 with a few things lingering into 2010. His wiki page
does list Tiptoes, but the description of his work
doesn't mention the movie.
-Gary Oldman playing a little
person: Why would you hire a regular height person to play a little
person? Oldman spends most of the movie on his knees pretending to
be a little person. Isn't that like a white guy wearing yellow or
brown makeup? Why not hire a little person actor? What were they
thinking? No one told him or the director this is sort of offensive?
You could probably get away with it in the 80s. But the 2000s?
Nope.
-Matthew
McConaughey must have smoked a lot of weed during the filming.
Matthew only recently mentioned his role in the horrible Texas
Chainsaw movie, will he talk about this movie?
