Tiptoes, starring Matthew McConaughey and Gary Oldman, screened at the Deauville Film Festival in late 2003 and went straight to DVD in mid-2004. The trailer (which may or may not have been edited by Tommy Wiseau) caught a lot of attention last spring, but I was watching it again the other day and thought I'd post it for those who have yet to see it. I also recently learned how to screengrab and wanted to give that a go.
The trailer for Tiptoes speaks for itself, and but there was a YouTube comment worth noting.
Someone pointed out the people walking backwards at 1:44. That sort of epitomizes the trailer for me.
If you missed A Simple Man, consider this the next best thing. Mazel tov!
"CHRIS": Chris claims to have been the inspiration for the character 'Chunk' in The Goonies. In 2002, Chris' televised remarks regarding the resemblance resulted in an out-of-court settlement with Warner Brothers. Chris now lives comfortably in a two-bedroom loft with his best friend, Sloth. "JAMES": James is considered by many to be "tidy" and "unoffensive". He gets by just fine. "LUKE": Luke is just an alias for one of the guys from Night Court. He's not Bull, and he's not John Larroquette. "ROB": Rob lives comfortably in a two-bedroom loft with his best friend, Chris. He's known affectionately as Sloth. "TONY": Tony may or may not know this blog exists. He enjoys the 1995 Chicago Bulls and his xenophobia has been described on more than one occasion as "alarming".
