If "Die Hard" is a Christmas movie, then so is "1984" and "Tootsie". If you get to the point of referencing a movie by holiday season just because that's when you first saw it, well, get ready to call "The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" a Summer Action Flick.

Moving this video to tootsie's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

@tootsie, what is your affiliation with this video?

I have heard that Bay is adapting Tootsie

From a feminist friend of a friend:

“This is nice and it’s cool for a straight guy to talk about having a new perspective on the male gaze, good for him. but the fact that it’s gone so viral is a little upsetting to me. do we really expect so little of men that Dustin Hoffman recognizing that, you know, beauty doesn’t necessarily accompany substance (and vice versa) is inspirational?”

So, what's his big revelation here? That unattractive women are interesting, too? Really? Not impressed.

He admits to working his fame on attractive women and then felt guilty for it, and made Tootsie to make up for his guilt (and cashed in, in the process). I don't hold it against him for having a "come to Jesus" moment, by dressing up in drag. I don't even care that he got emotional when he shared it with the American Film Institute, as some sort of cultural revelation.

What bothers me is that we live in a culture that feeds off these momentary glimpses of heart, when we all know that there is really so much more. And that this admiration for such a minor insight really sets the standard far too low.

Let's not mistake a sincere moment with actual, you know, integrity.
Sure, it's a sweet video and a sweet message (maybe a bit saccharine for my tastes). And Tootsie is, for sure, a great flick! But, crying on camera is not the limit-case for what constitutes a touching and meaningful moment, particularly one like this, devoid of any real context and depth. It's emptiness masquerading as meaning.

Crocodile.

For a second there I thought the little kid would leave a pile of tootsie rolls on the front walk.

How many Pollocks does it take to get to the tootsie-roll center of a tootsie pop?

does a suck count as a lick? lots of variables, I think. YMMV>> ^garmachi:

I was that kid who counted.
762.

How many does it take anyhow?-To subdue a skinny shirtless guy without killing him? It's like the "center of the Tootsie Pop" question. The world may never know.

Tube Cat! Sure to keep your tootsies warm

Tootsi Frootsi!

I couldn't tell you for sure that is from Tootsie...but it definitely isn't from Stripes. He's talking about theater though...so seems believable that it's from Tootsie.
>> ^Boise_Lib:

18) says Tootsie--the movie is Stripes (I think, it's been a long time).
I love picking movies (and videos about movies) apart.
Thanks, Grimm
