They Called This a Movie Episode 87 - Tiptoes (2003)

3 Oscar Winners. One Emmy Winner. And Kate Beckinsale. We've got another weird one for you this week, as They Called This a Movie covers one of the most misguided Oscar-baity films we've seen in a long time.What do you get when you have a script that's way too long, a premise that's straddling the line between woke and offensive, and add Kate Beckinsale's lucky hat? You get Tiptoes, this week's baffling entry in our quest to find the worst and weirdest films of all-time. Get comfortable for this one, because this movie is anything but comfortable. We discuss Kate Beckinsale's early 90s wardrobe, Matthew McConaughey's frightening character turn, and question the decision of casting Gary Oldman as a) a little person and b) Matthew McConaughey's twin brother. You can find us on iTunes, Stitcher, and Google Play Podcasts. If you want to see more from us, check out the website and follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.  We are now part of Geek Vibes Nation, so be sure to check out their website and to look for us on their future podcast shows. This week's episode features music from Dave Katusa and you can follow him on Instagram.   Find us on Bluesky, Instagram, and Threads @TCTAMPod and on TikTok @theycalledthisamovie.Our theme music was written and performed by Dave Katusa.
