Jessica Lange and Geena Davis were both in it. Now I don’t remember which was undressing. Haven’t watched it in decades.
I seem to recall Bill Murray went uncredited despite having a fairly substantial role. Is that true, or am I misremembering?
Jessica Lange played the love interest. Geena Davis (in one of her early roles) played a supporting actress on the soap opera who shared a dressing room with Tootsie. I don’t recall any scenes where Lange got undressed in this movie but there were definitely scenes where Davis did.
My all time ‘do not understand the love/hype’ movie is 2001. Boring as shit and sloooooow. What’s the story anyway? And what’s up with the ending. Totally underwhelming.
Near?
OK, here’s a scene with Geena Davis that sort of fits the bill. But I still could swear there’s a part where Jessica Lange peels off her stockings, etc. Not willing to look thru the whole film to find it though, guess I’m getting old.
Yes, Murray specifically declined being in the credits because he didn’t want people to think “Tootsie” was, “a Bill Murray film.”
Dead man walking - saw it years ago amidst the fawning hype and it was Dull, left me cold and snarky
Ocean’s 8 - saw it last night boring as hell, how could that be with that fricking amazing cast. I’ll blame Bullock though she was good as a blonde German, RHianna was a wall flower had no cred as hacker but she did shine in her couture gown at the end., Cate’s accent was all over the place, Helena wasn’t even funny, Sarah’s character was BS but Awkwafina was really funny. Anne was fun to watch but that’s it, and the cameo’s GMAFB!
There’s a comedian whose comment about tBWP is, “What does it say about us as a culture that someone would find footage of children being murdered and think the obvious thing to do with it is to release it as a feature film?”
Pretty funny, until somebody mentions Grizzly Man, I guess…
That quote reminds of the controversy when Faces of Death was released. When I saw it for the first time it was obvious to me that a lot of the footage was staged (which turned out actually be the case.) So I’d say I found Faces of Death to be underwhelming for how much it was hyped by some as being the ultimate “horror” film.
Heh, reminds me of when I saw Faces of Death. I’d heard about it, and then I was attending a meeting in Songkhla, southern Thailand in 1988. The venue was a restaurant. It was the afternoon, we had the whole place to ourselves, and I was not paying attention to what was being projected on a big screen in the dining area by the restaurant staff … until someone said, “Oh my God! That’s Faces of Death!” And it was. I just hope they weren’t showing it while the regular public was there dining.
Black Panther. Yeah, I get it, it’s the first black superhero movie. It still sucked ass. It’s like someone pushed a button on the old script-o-matic and came up with tiresome cliche car chases, hand to hand combat, fighter aircraft tropes, and so on and on. If this was so important to black Hollywood, wouldn’t it have helped for the movie to be… you know… good? This was like it would have been if Jackie Robinson couldn’t hit major league pitching. Or if Barack Obama sat on the toilet all day and tweeted. I saw this for the first time a couple weeks ago and was positively bored shitless. Worse yet, I paid for it on PPV and didn’t wait for it to come to HBO or whatever. Worst $4 I’ve spent in forever.
Um, Spawn, Blade, Catwoman? Hell, even Hancock.
