Films Apart | E01 | Tiptoes

from Films Apart

In the pilot episode, we dive into Tiptoes (2003)—a film so outrageous it never should have seen the light of day. Starring Gary Oldman (on his knees, no less) as Matthew McConaughey’s twin brother with dwarfism, Tiptoes tells the bizarre story of sibling rivalry and a pregnant fiancée (Kate Beckinsale) grappling with the possibility of their child inheriting dwarfism. It’s ridiculous, nonsensical, and downright tone-deaf. Join Kyle and Lewis as they break this film apart, from its baffling premise to its wildly misguided execution. Is it so bad it’s good, or just plain bad? Let’s find out!

I dig you the most xx Movies We Dig | Film, Antiquity and Everything in Between Movies We Dig Is it a movie podcast? Is it a history podcast? Is it an unholy union of the two? Short answer: yes!Each episode, hosts Colin MacCormack, Elijah Fleming and Christie Vogler break down a new movie about Greece, Rome or the wider ancient world and what works (or doesn’t work) about them. But this isn’t a podcast for nitpicking historical inaccuracies. Rather, it’s a chance to get hot takes on Hollywood films from professional nerds/academics and take a closer look at the relation between our movies and our pasts.
