Thanks to our latest Patreon patron, we were tasked with taking a look at one of the most baffling films of the early '00s, Tiptoes. Not only does the film star a veritable whos who of know famous and award-winning actors the likes of Matthew McConaughey, Gary Oldman, Peter Dinklage, and Patricia Arquette, but it also attempts to tackle a serious topic: dwarfism. McConaughey stars as Steve, a normal man from a family of dwarfs who knocks up his girlfriend, played by Kate Beckinsale, only to be unable to come to terms with the fact their child may be a dwarf. It's a bizarre, tonally inconsistent film that has to be seen to be believed. Chris and Eric discuss the film, Gary Oldman as a dwarf, and why it's seemingly gone under the radar for so long.
